It's appropriate, except in this case. You're referring to the commit
introducing a new driver, so this is expected to not find the
'intel:' suffix, but you have 'Add support for Intel SPI serial flash
controller' to clarify the scope.

Regarding the "mtd: " prefix, I think it's better to have it, but
apparently Cyrille is not enforcing that.

Well, it's a mix of common sense and 'git log --oneline' use :-). Here
you're only modifying the intel driver, but nothing in your subject
mentions it.
