From

* I suggest to move this tag to the bottom of the commit message.

* This specification is usually preferred without a dot at the line end.

Would you like to add patch version descriptions here?

How do you think about to use the following source code variant?

+ loff_t size = i_size_read(inode);

Will any further fine-tuning matter for this function implementation?
