Fabian, please start getting into the habit of improving your
changelogs. Unlike a lot of OSS projects, the kernel community (usually)
takes pride in having good ones. You send a number of patches but rarely
explain a key concept of software development in general: *WHY* do we
need this.

Thanks,
Davidlohr
