Generally speaking your commit logs are fairly concise, but it really
becomes an issue when you're allegedly fixing a bug.

There's a bunch of questions here that are completely up in the air:

  - What issue are you actually trying to fix, how can one reproduce it
  - You claim that there's no double clock on the DE2, according to
    what?
  - DE2 is used on way more SoCs than just the V3s, did you check/test
    on those SoCs as well?

In general, a good commit log should not explain what you're doing but
*why* you're doing it. The what can be quite easily figured out from the
patch content, the why can't today, and it will be even harder in a
year's time.
