FWIW, there must be a lot of places where proc.rst is need of actual updates.

So none of this belongs in the changelog; the changes in this version can be noted below the "---" line, but the email headers simply should not be here. Overall: it seems clear that, at some point, somebody wanted this document to be right-justified. I agree that's not too helpful and need not be there. But: "two spaces after a period" is explicitly not an error in the kernel docs and need not be "corrected". Avoiding those changes would reduce the churn here considerably. Thanks, jon
