This is great!
The summary field should contain the commit log message, like a report on what's going on for people unfamiliar with the subject:

Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D49010

The first line should be the file that's changing, followed by a brief summary for people searching though the commit logs.
The PR trailer updates the bug thread and provides the cross-reference.
Since this change is non breaking and applies to past versions of FreeBSD, we should use an MFC trailer to declare intent to backport this patch to stable.
The original reporter was J.R. Oldroyd, so we should give them credit.
Finally, the differential revision trailer provides a link to this discussion.

@carlavilla and/or @mhorne , may I commit this (with a bumped date)?

This revision is now accepted and ready to land.Feb 24 2025, 11:41 AM

Can you please confirm the author info you want on the commit -- I see Felix Johnson <fjohnson@felix-johnson.com> and Felix Johnson <felix.the.red@gmail.com> in the commit history now.

Oops! I forgot about this. Felix has been afk for a few weeks, but he switched his new reviews to his domain lately, I'll use that.

I wish I had a list of open revisions that I've approved, and another list of open revisions I've commented on. That would really help.

Warner sent me something once but I have 0.1m emails and can't come up with the right regex to find it.
