a.  always include the warning or error message that the patch fixes

b.  (quoting from another email yesterday:)

so in your analysis of this compiler warning, was the warning correct & justified,
or was it false?  I.e., is the init to NULL needed?

If it was false, could we just silence the warning by using:

	struct ft1000_info *unitialized_var(pft1000info);

plus #include <linux/compiler.h> ?
