Please add the changelog here instead of adding it in each patch. And keep the
changelog for previous versions too (i.e. v1->v2 in this case) so that the
changes overall can be tracked.

The proper formatting for the title should be [PATCH v3 X/Y] instead of adding
v3 in the title itself. With git format-patch, you can use "-v 3" option to
format this for you, or --subject-prefix="PATCH v3" option.
