This change would break the #if-0'd out code if we ever reenabled it.

But it's more or less okay here, it's parsing /proc/cpuinfo.

Why?  I like having the semantic patch in the commit message when
there's any chance we'll want do the same mechanical change again later.

You could save space and include it by reference, though: "Same
Coccinelle semantic patch as is commit 74c373e".

git commit messages aren't good documentation for various scripts
like this, this info will be lost in the noize.  If it might be
better to keep such scripts in a separate file where it is easier
to find, or in a wiki page on the site. The key point is where to
find the info, git log is difficult for that, especially when you
don't know what to search for or that such a script exists in
there in the first place.

On the other hand, when git log is cluttered by such a long messages
for such small changes, it becomes more difficult to find info which
you really look in git log -- namely, which changes were made that
might have introduced this regression, things like that.

So to me, the shorter and cleaner the commit message is, the better.

BTW, I've no idea why this email has been Cc'd to kvm@vger :)

I think it can be useful when you're looking at a commit
to know that it was automatically created, especially if
it's a big commit. It means that if you're looking for
a bug in it you can concentrate on the script that created
it rather than the possibly large set of changes it produced,
or if you're trying to cherry-pick it into another branch you
can just apply the script instead.

In a commit with a change this small it's not very significant
either way, though.
