Subject: [PATCH] usb: usb-skeleton: remove obsolete comment
Date: Tue, 21 Sep 2021 23:41:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210921214147.GA9648@matrix-ESPRIMO-P710> (raw)

This patch fixes the checkpatch.pl warning:
WARNING: It's generally not useful to have the filename in the file
7: FILE: drivers/usb/usb-skeleton.c:7:
+ * This driver is based on the 2.6.3 version of drivers/usb/usb-skeleton.c

Deleting both lines as the -2.6.3- makes the reader belief this is an
unusable old file and the -rewritten to be easier ...- is only of value for
the reader that knows what the driver was before.
