No, this is not intentional. The scripts have a logic to identify the description
body of a mercurial commit and of a patch received by email. The logic should
just import whatever description is provided on -hg.

By looking on your commit for this patch on mercurial, we have:

description:
v4l: add a media-bus API for configuring v4l2 subdev pixel and frame formats
From: Guennadi Liakhovetski <g.liakhovetski@xxxxxx>

Video subdevices, like cameras, decoders, connect to video bridges over
specialised busses. Data is being transferred over these busses in various
formats, which only loosely correspond to fourcc codes, describing how video
data is stored in RAM. This is not a one-to-one correspondence, therefore we
cannot use fourcc codes to configure subdevice output data formats. This patch
adds codes for several such on-the-bus formats and an API, similar to the
familiar .s_fmt(), .g_fmt(), .try_fmt(), .enum_fmt() API for configuring those
codes. After all users of the old API in struct v4l2_subdev_video_ops are
converted, it will be removed. Also add helper routines to support generic
pass-through mode for the soc-camera framework.

As you see, you added those comments at the end of the patch, together with a diffstat.
While the script has a logic to remove diffstats, it doesn't contain anything to remove
the "create mode" lines that you've added at the end of the patch description.

Cheers,
Mauro.
