Your subject: needs to be fixed for all of these, as it does not
describe what part of the kernel is being modified.

A better example would be to use a prefix of:
	Subject: [PATCH XX/13] USB: skeleton: 
for all of these patches, so the shortlog entry is correct.

Care to redo this series, based on the feedback you've gotten, and
resend?

thanks,
