Nope, this was not with LLM, honestly :-) I hope it isn't Claude tho because I can't stand it... I spent just way too much time fitting all the details while keeping then compact as possible and that is what I ended up with. And as I recall saying (I think) previously, I will take a habbit of writing these at the time when I ack the patch. I also think that while there are situations where I could use an LLM for development, using them for PR would impose a quality risk as it is also the last time to sanity check and drop patches when needed. Putting things down early and eagerly is probably a right choice and it is best use of the energy spent on review process. > > Linus Br, Jarkko
