I am also curious on how other contributors will respond to
your following update suggestion.

Would it have been clearer to use this information as the subject
for this reply already?

Are you fine with that this change approach was recorded in
a possibly questionable format?
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10165193/

* Will it matter to mention the previous software situation a bit
  in such a commit description?

* Would you like to add a tag “link”?

* Are you going to “supersede” any more source code adjustments
  around questionable error messages?

Regards,
Markus
