Hi Khadija,

It seems you've gotten feedback suggesting this single patch
can be abandoned, and replaced with a patchset, like:

Clean up comments in r8192U_dm.c
- remove code in comments
- remove change history info from comments 
- reformat block comments

In the cover letter, you can refer to this previous patch
with a lore link. ie...

Reviewer feedback on a previous patch [1] suggested additional
cleanups of comments.
