Phil has already provided some technical points, I've a couple of more
general ones.
1) Do you have a copyright assignment on file with the FSF? This change
is large enough to need one.
2) Your ChangeLog entry is incorrectly formatted. See the existing file
for examples.

* config.sub Added arm-uclinux target
* gcc/Configure modified arm-uclinux-target to use t-arm-uclinux
fragment
* gcc/config/arm/arm.c added usage of ARM_SUBTARGET_OVERRIDE_OPTION in
arm_override_options
arm_legitimize_pic_address modified to
generate indirection throug
GOT ONLY if NEED_GOT_RELOC is true
* gcc/config/arm/arm.h added define ARM_FLAG_LAST_USED_BIT to specify
last used bit
in target_flags
* gcc/config/arm/uclinux-elf.h modified to support -mno-got option
Apart from the "date" line, all lines start with a single tab.
File names are introduced with a '*' followed by a single space, the
filename, another space, the name of the function changed in parenthesis,
a colon and then the description of the change. The change must be a full
sentence starting with a capital letter and ending with a period (.).
Changes to more than one function in a file can be introduced by naming
subsequent functions on a new line (in parentheses followed by a colon).
No lines must be longer than 80 columns. Note, the filename "Configure"
is *not* the same as the filename "configure". Also note that gcc has
more than one ChangeLog file; changes need to go in the appropriate one,
so you need to split up your changes and log messages accordingly.
Richard.
