Write what you fixed.

Not in the correct format.  Use git send-email or read
Documentation/email-clients.txt.  Send it to yourself first, save the
email as raw text including headers and everything.
`cat raw_email.txt | git am`.  Review the git log with `git log -p`.
When that works then resend the patch.

No Signed-off-by line.

This is a false positive because it sees the "struct qos_entry_s," and
thinks it's a declaration but it's not.  Don't obey checkpatch.pl if
checkpatch.pl is wrong.

No.  The alignment is all kinds of messed up now.  The original was
better.
