It's better to show wheter this is a bug-fix or not in changelog.

IIUC, the bug-fix is the 1st harf of this patch + patch [2/3].
Your new bug-check code is in patch[1/3] and 2nd half of this patch.

I think it's better to do bug-fix 1st and add bug-check later.

So, could you reorder patches to bug-fix and new-bug-check ?
