When changing the meta-package tree we do not modify the changelog because that
is generated as part of the preparations for the next upload. And as benefit you
likely can use the same patch for all series.

Bikeshedding comment: maybe saying generate linux-crashdump meta-package for
arm64 is slightly better as this does not build anything in the binaries sense.

What I would like to see is more description in the commit message (like a short
summary of the reasoning of the change) which can be read without following bug
links.

Oh and personally I would prefer any re-submit be done as cover-letter style
with needed variations (if there are) as follow-ups. That is grouping things
better as its the same change over and over.
