Some subtleties or nuances can be missed by authors and this is maybe inevitable when one spends significant time on the code or changelog. The fresh look and first impression is not possible anymore. But this is how patches are read when found git log. In this case I agree with you and the use use of 'use' is a bit misleading, suggesting that xxhash is now default.
