First, please wrap your commit messages at 72 column or so (not 60).

We've asked you repeatedly whether you for u-blox or not, but you keep
ignoring this question. Knowing this would allow us to better evaluate
the reasoning and motivation behind this this change.

The above commit message still does not explain why you want to remove
it and whether it would be safe to do so. Why was added in the first
place? What u-blox products used the old PID?

By just removing the define this is less of an issue, but you should
not make the life of reviewers harder by ignoring request to properly
motivate your changes and explain why they are safe to apply.

You can either put a shared changelog for the whole series in a cover
letter, or you describe changes to each individual patch. But mixing the
two styles as you do in this entry is just confusing.
