That's not a change log because it only tells _what_ the patch is doing,
but not _why_. Enumerating the details of what is moved is a pointless
exercise because that can bee seen from the diff itself.

So you want something like:

  Interrupt redirection support requires a new interrupt chip, which
  needs to share data structures, constants and functions with the AVEC
  code.

  Move them to the header file and make the required functions public.

See?
