i thought we were against this sort of changelog stuff in files.  let
the scm take care of the changelog.
I don't have a strong opinion on whether the changelog in the file
should be kept or not and I won't argue. However, in this particular
instance there is no SCM log since the driver is not merged into the
mainline kernel. When/if it is merged, this will happen as a patch
without an SCM log.
while all true, the problem is that people who make updates in the
future often times will also update the in-file changelog

you could move the changelog out of the file and into the first commit
message
You are right, that seems even better. Thanks.
