Yes, as I mentioned previously, this is pretty normal for the kernel --
and the expectation is the maintainer will extract the patch starting
from the $SUBJECT line, effectively (the start of the commit message). I
will start doing the Changes from bit if you want, but I don't
particularly find it useful (it's more useful for large patches, I
mean).
