SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/5] PCI: Add pci_dev_type

Please use 'ispell' before sending your patches.


Also please explain why do you want this? If I do
'git annotate' on that file (say six months from now when I've forgotten
a lot) and try to lookup what 'is_visible' attribute is, I get
this one line explanation. Worst, the explanation does not
say *why* we need it - or the *purpose* behind it. Or if there
are patches that are going to utilize it.

The Documentation/SubmittingPatches says:

2) Describe your changes.

Describe the technical detail of the change(s) your patch includes.

Be as specific as possible. The WORST descriptions possible include
things like "update driver X", "bug fix for driver X", or "this patch
includes updates for subsystem X. Please apply."

The maintainer will thank you if you write your patch description in a
form which can be easily pulled into Linux's source code management
system, git, as a "commit log". See #15, below.

If your description starts to get long, that's a sign that you probably
need to split up your patch. See #3, next.

When you submit or resubmit a patch or patch series, include the
complete patch description and justification for it. Don't just
say that this is version N of the patch (series). Don't expect the
patch merger to refer back to earlier patch versions or referenced
URLs to find the patch description and put that into the patch.
I.e., the patch (series) and its description should be self-contained.
This benefits both the patch merger(s) and reviewers. Some reviewers
probably didn't even receive earlier versions of the patch.

If the patch fixes a logged bug entry, refer to that bug entry by
number and URL.
