Something like 'Move VME staging driver to staging Kconfig' , or
'Source vme driver from staging Kconfig'.

Skip the 'IMHO'. It's all your HO and if you state anything incorrectly,
your reviewers should catch it. If you are truly making a wild guess
about something, either look into it further, or not it in a question
below the '---'.
This commit message is otherwise very well written. It explains the
why of this patch nicely.
Again, for this set, perhaps the changelog in the cover letter only.
