They are recommended by the GNU Coding Standards as an attribution that
the code fits under the tiny change rule, and hence that checking for that
contributor's copyright assignment when doing an audit is not necessary.
Without it, an auditor must manually check the size of the patch or ensure
that the copyright is on file.
