This can be "[#:phases]<patch-paths>: Adjust accordingly." imho.  For a
lengthier discussion, you can use the pre-ChangeLog blurb, should you
need it.

You can drop the [#:phases] prefix.  Also, adjust accordingly – this
pattern is already well known throughout the rest of gnome and should
probably be put into meson-build-system itself at some point.

Here, just drop the [#:phases] prefix.

I wonder what's this about the firmware security panel :)
The trio is usually 
patch: New file.
packages/module.scm (package): Use it here.
gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Register it here.

Note that you have two blocks for gnome-control-center now.  I think
you should the patch and gnu/local.mk first so that you can have the
rest of the ChangeLog for the "important" changes :)

By the way, there's no need to send a cover letter for a single patch.
Just add your comments below the "---" line.  The biggest issue that
keeps me from pushing this is the reported crash; we should be able to
at least somehow get a working gnome-control-center even if it means
spawning an extra dbus session from a pure shell or something.  If you
can resolve this by testing in qemu, then fine, but until you do, let's
keep this on the wait list :)

Cheers
