Quite aside from the tone the fact that it doesn't describe the issue is not helpful for review, one of the things done in review is to try to check that the change has the intended effect.

Just to be clear the issue is with the presentation of your change, it is not appropriate to provide a changelog which consists mainly of widely directed personal insults especially given that it omits basic technical content.

Just describe in a specific, technical fashion what the problem is and what the fix does without reference to personal qualities of the various parties involved in the code being the way it is.

Aua. This really hurts. I wonder how this could ever be admitted to the Linux kernel... Further comments suppressed because the would most likely violate the CDA. If someone should not grasp what this patch does, they should consider what happens upon unloading/reloading the kernel module.
