This isn't a good changelog, what are the warnings and why are we fixing them? The fact that checkpatch complains isn't meaningful in and of itself - it's OK to say that checkpatch helped identify issues but it's not perfect and we need to understand what is being changed and why.
Hello Mark,
Thank you for reviewing the patch. I've used the checkpatch tool and
fixed the warnings provided by the tool. The warnings are in the
function definitions:
1) static void bcm63xx_hsspi_set_cs(struct bcm63xx_hsspi *bs, unsigned
cs, bool active)
2) static void bcm63xx_hsspi_set_clk(struct bcm63xx_hsspi *bs,
struct spi_device *spi, int hz)
{
unsigned profile = spi->chip_select;
3) static int bcm63xx_hsspi_do_txrx(struct spi_device *spi, struct
spi_transfer *t)
{
struct bcm63xx_hsspi *bs = spi_master_get_devdata(spi->master);
unsigned chip_select = spi->chip_select;
These warnings looked straightforward for me so I've fixed those and
sent the patch.
Kindly let me know if you want to record the warnings in the patch so
that I could send v2 patch as soon as possible.
Thank you,
Aravind.

It's not just a case of quoting the warnings, it's a case of explaining what your patch changes which usually requires more than just quoting the warning.
