Shouldn't the install targets take DESTDIR into account like the main Makefile does, though? As to the patch submission, everything below "---" line looks sane, but please check how others write commit log messages by browsing a handful of entries in "git log --no-merges" output and notice the difference (the details are found in Documentation/SubmittingPatches).
