What I mentioned in patch 10 also applies to all patches from 11 to 18
it seems. All changes made in patches 09-18 are based on the explanation
gave in patch 08.

The problem with this is that it'll be annoying if/when something goes
wrong. Let's say that the change made in patch 15 caused a side-effect.
Bisect will point it to patch 15, which doesn't have an explanation of
why you made the change, and then one will need to trace it back to the
mailing list to understand it. It's not a given that one will look at
all the recent changes and understand that the logic used in patch 08
are also being used in the subsequent patches.

I don't mind if you just copy/paste the commit message from patch 08 and
just change the instruction name being fixed. What's important is to
provide some context for each individual change.


Thanks,


Daniel
