Lemme try to understand what you're saying: just because someone
accepted a patch of yours, then others should not ask you to improve
your commit message so that it explains *why* a change should be done.

How about you put the gist of what Linus is saying in your commit
message? Don't you think it would be a much better commit message then?

Especially if it explains why, even if it is the case that 0 == NULL, we
don't want those in the kernel.

Hmmm?
