Why are you reviewing stable kernel patches as if there is anything you
can do about them at this point in time to change things like this?
These are all mirrors of what is in Linus's tree.  If you object to the
original patch, that's fine, but please respond to the original patch,
not the stable kernel patches as there's nothing I can do about
changelog text at this late in the process.
