I don't agree here 100%.  IMHO the commit log was not good enough for
the change introduced by the patch (and Felipe's reply suggests that he
agrees).  I could still research it, but:

 - it was not obvious for me there was a previous version (no "v2" or
   similar in the patch subject);
 - for me it would take say 5 minutes to check, the author knows
   the answer to my question immediately (at least he should);
 - after a research I could suggest a better wording, but I don't care
   much if it's me or Felipe who comes up with a better text.

So all in all I'm still confident that my mail was OK.

Best regards
Uwe
