Yes. - But other contributors pointed the detail out again
that not every change is qualified for using this tag.

If you would insist on the addition of this tag to all my commits
for the discussed patch series, I imagine that I would need to split
the update step “Improve a size determination in nine functions”
into smaller parts.

Partly.

How much do you care for the section “14) Allocating memory”
in the document “coding-style.rst” then?
