If you have to provide next version to address other issues, please use 
canonical form to provide a link. For example,

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191210091451.6054-1-roman.sudarikov@linux.intel.com

"20191210091451.6054-1-roman.sudarikov@...ux.intel.com" is the 
Message-ID of V2 patch set, which can help maintainers or reviewers to 
locate the patch set quickly.

Please specify which comments are addressed and how are they addressed 
next time. So we can focus on the updated codes.

Except the change log issue, the patch set looks good to me.
