... which I might not even connect to binding patches. I see only one
entry regarding bindings in your changelog, so I find it not much
informative.

For the future, please state that you ignore tags for given reason.

Both are accepted, but if you do it in cover letter, it should be
obvious for the reader that patches XYZ were changed. It's not.
