Since we are cleaning up the series anyway, please fix the patch titles as well:
- Please try to find the proper subsystem marker instead of a generic 'x86: '
prefix. For example:
x86: basic changes into headers for 5-level paging
... can be prefixed with "x86/headers: ..." or "x86/mm: ..."
- Please always start the titles with verbs, to make it easy to parse
shortlogs and git oneliner logs quickly. I.e. instead of:
x86: basic changes into headers for 5-level paging
Use something like:
x86/mm: Apply basic changes into headers for 5-level paging
- Please capitalize them consistently, i.e. "x86/subsystem: Verb ...", with the
verb in upper case.
- Also, please _read_ the titles and the changelogs, for example "basic changes
into headers" is not a valid, easy to parse English sentence...
I.e. applying all these 4 principles to the first line turns it from:
x86: basic changes into headers for 5-level paging
... into something much more informative and easier to read:
x86/mm: Extend headers with basic definitions to support 5-level paging
Please do this for all the other patches as well - almost all of them have one
deficiency or some other, several have multiple such deficiencnies.
Ok?
Thanks,
Ingo
