Frustrating? I am sure that maintainers have another view on that when they 
have to mention the same type of submission errors again and again. That's 
why there is a wireless wiki page on the subject:

https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches

If Kalle is willing to cleanup the commit message in the current patch you 
are lucky. You are free to ask. Otherwise it should be not too much trouble 
resubmitting it.

Arend
