This does mean that the final changelogs that get included in the kernel
get very large and noisy and is relying on the submitters doing a good
job paying attention to review comments in the first place, recording
exactly what changed and so on.  They are sometimes useful but normally
I'm finding very little value in the changelogs in the first place,
generally it doesn't really matter what the problems were in any
previous versions.
