I often fold comment (and spacing/formatting) patches in to a main
patch, when touching adjacent code anyway and it doesn't cause
distracting clutter.

This seemed like such a case, which is why I submitted it as one.
But it's a bit of style thing.

Er... all he did was add "staging: " to the front of the title.

That's not a change to the code at all, and as trivial a change
to the commit message as adding "Reviewed-by:" to the end.
We don't need S-o-b for such things or we'd end up in a horrible
infinite recursion.
