While I surely would consider such a submission I wonder if your energy 
may not be better spent on other areas where there are higher priority 
work needed? What is your goal with this work? I understand that you are 
new to Linux kernel development and want to learn but it is not clear to 
me fixing capitalization and punctuation would be a good use of your energy.

This work would make the comments easier to read and a welcome addition. 
Please consider this a lower priority if you come across functional 
issues that could benefit your attention.

Thank you very much
