Reading through `git log --oneline`, which is also used in the 
announcement emails, the line

> ice: Remove unused enum

would make me need to look into the commit to find out if something 
“important” was removed. Using

> ice: Remove unused enum ice_devlink_param_id

would make that unnecessary for me.


Kind regards,

Paul
