These seem roughly alphabetized. Should we put this after line 127?

Moved the MNT_NAMEDATTR entry up, to maintain
alphabetical ordering, as suggested by ziaee@.

This looks sharp! The first sentence explains everything. Terse, informative, perfect. Personally, I do prefer that we keep metadata like the commit hash in commit trailers such as "Fixes:" and do the first sentence of commit messages the same way.
