Hello,

Thanks for your patch, but the application period doesn't start until mid
February, expected February 17. So that your patches don't get lost and
you get feedback in a timely manner, it would be better to hold off until
then.

However, for some quick feedback on your patch:

In the subject, "aligned" is consistently misspelled. Also, for staging
the subject line should say which staging driver is concerned, because
they are all different. So, probably Staging: emxx_udc:. But you can use
git log --oneline filename to see what is the common subject line for this
kind of driver.

You don't need to mention the file name.

You need to use your real name, eg something that could be in your
passport or driver's license. If this is not the name associated with
your email address, then you need to put a fake From: line at the
beginning of your message, with the same information as is shown in the
Signed-off-by: line.

There are two occurrences of --- here. Perhaps you added one and another
one was added for you.

The patch does apply fine :)

The only issue that the code might change in the meantime. So you can
work on patches now, but just check that they still apply when the
application period starts.

Another thing that you can do in the meantime is read the patches written
by others. It can help to get used to the style, and will make getting
your patches accepted more efficient.
