While it's also unexpected, it's really *duplicated* word.

The above is just duplication of the patch itself, and completely
unnecessary.
The patch subject prefix should be something like "drm/i915:" or
"drm/i915/reg:".
Pro-tip for figuring out good guesses of what the subject prefix should
be:
$ git log --since={5-year} --no-merges --pretty=format:%s -- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_reg.h | sed 's/:.*//' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head
312 drm/i915
113 drm/i915/icl
57 drm/i915/tgl
26 drm/i915/cnl
25 drm/i915/display
22 drm/i915/dg2
16 drm/i915/psr
14 drm/i915/gt
14 drm/i915/adl_p
12 drm/i915/dg1
The patch itself is fine, but I'm nitpicking on the commit message
because I've seen lots of patches like this, with the same kind of stuff
in the commit messages.
BR,
Jani.
