What is the motivation here? What is the real world impact for the

Please don't break the URL up like this. I think normally we would just
write up a normal commit message and use the Link: tag.

Don't introduce a blank line here. Checkpatch will complain if you
have to blank lines in a row. It won't complain about the patch but it
will complain if you apply the patch and then re-run checkpatch -f on
the file. (I didn't test this but it's wrong either way. :P).
