Don't send this header. We get everything from the email header.

Your fix is correct, but the changelog is not good. These messages in
Sparse are wrong over 80% of the time. So when I see one in a commit
message I assume it is wrong. Add some more explanation to say why you
removed the spin_unlock.

Also "redundant" means "unnecessary" but sort of implies that it is
harmless. Say something like: "staging: ced401: fix double unlock bug".
