Previously, the documentation only requested links to upstream commits when backporting patches. Based on a mailing list discussion [0], patches should, when possible and when approriate, provide a link as evidence that the patch has been submitted upstream. The motivation is that hopefully the patch gets applied to upstream at some point reducing the long term maintenance burden within Buildroot. This also makes future patch review on subsequent package version bumps more streamlined. For patches that are unique to BR and do not apply to the upstream repository, patches should have a comment explaining why they do not apply upstream.
