Yes, this is the the CI output from x86-cpuid-db,¹ but I did not author
this patch. Please keep the From lines as yours, since x86-cpuid-db
already has a git history with all the authorship details.

Also, could we please make the logs of the patches modifying these
auto-generated files consistent with previous patches? Please check:

49394b5af45c tools/x86/kcpuid: Update bitfields to x86-cpuid-db v2.4
300ba891418a tools/x86/kcpuid: Update bitfields to x86-cpuid-db v2.3
5e0c3c5e95f0 tools/x86/kcpuid: Update bitfields to x86-cpuid-db v2.2
...

So this series should IMHO be just two patches instead:

From: you

patch #1: tools/x86/kcpuid: Update bitfields to x86-cpuid-db v3.1
patch #2: x86/cpuid: <leaf_types.h>: Update bitfields to x86-cpuid-db v3.1

And in both of these two patches you summarize the release changes relevant
to the modified files and add a link to the v3.1 release Changelog:

https://gitlab.com/x86-cpuid.org/x86-cpuid-db/-/blob/v3.1/CHANGELOG.rst

I was confused actually what the first patch was doing, given the existence
of the second. With the above format, the git history of these auto
generated files will be much cleaner.
