Note, every change log should have enough information in it to know why it is being done. This says what the patch does, but does not fully explain "why". It should never be assumed that one must read other patches to get the context. A year from now, investigating git history, this may be the only thing someone sees for why this change occurred. The "why" above is simply "prevent preprocessor from replacing them when it's not intended". What does that mean? -- Steve > > Signed-off-by: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@xxxxxxxxxx>
