..and actually... it makes submitting patches rather hard.
[PATCH] fix compilation on socfpga

[PATCHv2] arm: socfpga: fix compilation on socfpga

[PATCHv3] arm: socfpga: fix compilation on socfpga

v2: added tags to the subject
v3: added diffs to previous version
. (From memory, but IIRC something very similar to this happened before).
This scares of all but the most determined patch submitters, and does
not really improve code quality.
I'd argue that if only changelog is updated, it is _not_ a new version
of patch, and does not need changelog diff. Or maybe be less strict
policy / less strict enforcement of the policy in trivial cases.
Best regards,
Pavel
