I did not know that before, and thanks for the information.  But looking
at the code change, there is nothing about etnaviv driver, and it's all
about drm-imx driver.  So I'm still questioning why stm32 needs to be
mentioned in the commit log at all.

Agreed.  It's perfect.

I don't think 'stm32' should be there, as the code change in this commit
has nothing to do with stm32, if I understand it correctly.

I can edit the commit log when applying.  But we need to agree on what
it should be first.
