When I was applying this patch, I got the following warning:

137f51649b04 (HEAD -> drm-misc-next) drm/vkms: Suppress context 
imbalance sparse warning
-:4: WARNING:EMAIL_SUBJECT: A patch subject line should describe the 
change not the tool that found it
#4:
Subject: [PATCH] drm/vkms: Suppress context imbalance sparse warning

total: 0 errors, 1 warnings, 0 checks, 14 lines checked

Therefore, before pushing the patch, I changed the commit title to
"drm/vkms: Suppress context imbalance detected by sparse warning". Hope
you don't mind.

Applied to misc/kernel.git (drm-misc-next).

Best Regards,
- Maíra
