If it is not too much trouble, it probably is a better organization to make this a two-patch series, whose first patch leaves the original description on .sample files in, and the second patch that builds on top of the first patch removes the description on .sample files. That way, if people still likes to see the description on .sample, we can just drop the second patch and still use the first patch.

Thanks.
