	It's not required, but rather advised ;-) The "patch" message is  
already conveyed by the "patch-*" part in the suggested file name,  
and the .diff extension helps some editors handle the file better.  
Overall, it's a simple thing that does not warrant too much bikeshed,  
though consistency is a good thing.
