Hi Daniel,

I believe having a changelog like

	Use short form of "if() BUG()" sequence

would be better perhaps? Since "Coccinelle's BUG_ON semantic patch"
somehow doesn't describe why it's done.

Don't get me wrong please. It's trivial and seen from patch
itself _why_ it's done though changelog doesn't say the same.

Perhaps I'm too nagging :) Feel free to ignore me.
