Thanks,

for future patches: 
this kind of info should be part of commit message incl.
spec/doc title/revision it's coming from with a specific
chapter/table also mentioned. This way whoever reads it
later won't have to ask or spend time for searching where
it comes from.

And maybe also have a comment close to new code,
aka like we do for ACPI patches.
