The GNU changelog idea is to stick to changes in the commit message; if
explanations are needed they can go in the code as comments.
Alternatively, you can also put explanations as a paragraph between the
commit summary (first line) and the changelog.

I used search-input-file, making sure to use (or native-inputs inputs)
as its first argument, so that it works even when cross-compiling.

I moved hwdata to native-inputs,

And pushed as 387a9772c2571d4375d6c3682c7572d12e7ec5b2 to the
core-updates branch.

Thank you!
