It depends.  If the person who committed the patch was using a git tree
then it can be difficult for them to alter a changelog.

But the -mm tree is not mastered in git (for this and other reasons),
and I alter changelogs all the time.  So please feel free to send
replacement text and I shall copy-n-paste that text straight into the patch.
