Is not a proper subject line. It clearly lacks a verb.

  Subject: mm/x86: Implement arch_check_zapped_pud()

Please get rid of the line break. You have 100 characters.

Why is a mm change burried in a patch which is named mm/x86?

It's clearly documented that core changes with the generic fallback come

Do we write documentation just for the sake of writing it?
