hm.  I normally fold crappy little patches like this into the main patch
before sending it Linuswards.  The submitter gets a mention in the s-o-b
record and perhaps a one-line description if the fix was less than utterly
trivial.

That's one advantage of the patch-scripts/quilt approach: these little
post-facto fixups don't pollute the upstream changelog record.
