Sugguestion is you also add an entry to the header of the file
(Documentation/i386/boot.txt):

something like this:

diff --git a/Documentation/i386/boot.txt b/Documentation/i386/boot.txt
index fc49b79..645bbd7 100644
--- a/Documentation/i386/boot.txt
+++ b/Documentation/i386/boot.txt

kernel relocatable.
 Protocol 2.06:	(Kernel 2.6.22) Added a field that contains the size of

+Protocol 2.07:	(Kernel 2.6.23) Added two fields hardware_subarch and
