The changes from one version of a patch, or patch set, to the next has
moved around a bit.  Some people put it in the cover letter, others put
it on the individual patches.   It's also moved from within the patch
description to after the dashes.  Documentation/process/submitting-
patches.rst provides an example, but leaves out the word "Changelog".  
For an explanation of what goes into the patch description versus the
Changelog, search for "Other comments relevant only to the moment or
the maintainer".

For example, this version of the patch limits increasing the delay just
for Atmel TPM 1.2 chips.  At minimum it would be included in the
Changelog, but more likely included in the patch description itself and
perhaps even in the Subject line.
