It's appropriate, except in this case. You're referring to the commit introducing a new driver, so this is expected to not find the 'intel:' suffix, but you have 'Add support for Intel SPI serial flash controller' to clarify the scope. Regarding the "mtd: " prefix, I think it's better to have it, but apparently Cyrille is not enforcing that. > How would I have found the "mtd: spi-nor: intel:" in this case ? Well, it's a mix of common sense and 'git log --oneline' use :-). Here you're only modifying the intel driver, but nothing in your subject mentions it.
