I wanted to make this change to be more fitting with the kernel coding
guidelines, and to reduce a WARNING made with checkpatch preferring the
use of 'unsigned int' over 'unsigned'. With NOMMU_MAP_COPY defined in
'include/linux/fs.h' as an unsigned integer, I felt like the change was
fitting. I was quickly reminded that the changelog was not properly done, 
and I now understand that, and will learn from my mistake in the future.
As I am a new kernel contributor, and looking to hone my skills, what are 
my next steps? 

Should I:

o Drop the patch and resubmit it,
o Simply drop the patch,
o Could I change it somehow?,
o Or something else?

Thank you very much for your time and effort,
- Paul

P.S. Resending this as reply all, as I quickly relized I forgot to do
after I send the email to Greg.
