Avoid using 'we' as it can be ambiguous what / who it it referring to.
Also generally, use an imperative tone for changelogs - e.g. the above
line could just be "Simplify the sanity checks so that the default log
file is assigned correctly, and the behavior is consistent with the
documentation."

Shouldn't be using "I did xyz.." in a commit message either - change to
imperative, e.g.: "Remove the filename prefix tweaking in
function_foo() since it is unnecessary."

Usually no need to include code snippets in changelogs - the details
are easily available in the actual commit itself. Instead describe what
you did and why if it isn't an obvious change.

Use the /* comment */ style - ndctl follows the kernel's coding style
whenever applicable.

Just to reduce confusion about what 'standard' is and to emphesize that
it's a keyword, maybe reword this:

"relative path or 'standard' are not compatible with daemon mode"

I think the original './standard' was used that way because
fix_filename() added the './' prefix. Note that the keyword used in the
nam page is just 'standard' - so shouldn't this just be using
'standard' rather than './standard'. Similarly, later when you strcmp,
that should also become just 'standard' of course.
