I'm _not_ saying that the patch is irrelevant. I'm saying that the
commit message should explain _why_. If the standard way is relevant
it's fine, but at least say how valid is the standard in this case.

If you can explain _why_ we should conform to "the usually defined" way,
it's even better.

If you intend this patch to be merged it needs a resend.
