Ok, real minor nits here, but I'd like you to make them for future
patches as it makes my life easier, and I don't like to edit patches by
hand, as I don't scale very well.
Your subject should be:
[PATCH] staging: comedi: das1800: fix for * bar to be foo *bar
you need to add the driver subsystem, and specific area and driver. And
no kernel drivers are ALL CAPS, so that should never be used.
I've taken this patch as-is, but in the future please try to do this.
Oh, one more thing:

You forgot a ':' here :)

Ok, after all that work, it turns out I can't even apply this patch as
someone else did it already a while ago. You should be working off of
linux-next, or my staging.git tree, not Linus's tree, as that does not
contain all of the work we are doing on the next version of linux (hence
the -next).
So, care to try again with a different fix?
