This sentence doesn't really add much value since many patches
contain additional description and the logs here are mostly a
few lines from the ChangeLog which doesn't count as an extensive
detailed explanation in my books. :)

I expect that you're familiar with this but take a look at:
http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded#Committing_your_patch

     Commit with a concise and descriptive message -
     one that explains your changes in a way others get
     a short overview without looking at the code.

I'd prefer to see the ChangeLog snippets duplicated in the git log
so that it's easier to see what happened.

If you do a v2, please also mention that the patches are backports
since that's important to people when they consider whether the patch
should be accepted.

Thanks!
