The subject line is not correct.
The series number should be written as eg [PATCH 1/7]. Afterwards, there should be some information about the affected files before the topic of the patch. You can find out how to make a proper subject line for a given file(s) using git log --oneline. For example, git long --oneline drivers/staging/gs_fpgaboot/io.c gives:
686855e Staging: gs_fpgaboot: remove blank line in io.c f37e90e staging: gs_fpgaboot: io.c: Remove unused function 06a3fab staging: gs_fpgaboot: remove checks for CONFIG_B4860G100 ba660d2 staging: gs_fpgaboot: remove unnecessary return statements 5535c4d staging: gs_fpgaboot: Fixed code style issues
So a patch on this file should have a subject line that starts with "staging: gs_fpgaboot: ". Note that there is a space after each colon. Don't try to make up the subject line yourself. Different subsystems have different conventions, and there is no deterministic algorithm.
Typically the files that you put together in a single patch should be associated with similar subject lines and should go to the same set of people. This particular patch seems to cover a random mixture of files, while the others in the series seem a bit more coherent.
