Kernel commit logs shouldn't be in Markdown.

Symbol names can just be in single quotes (not back-quotes!) like
'jiffies'.

Quotes can be indented by a few spaces for visual separation, like

  In LLD, symbol assignments in linker scripts override definitions in
  object files. GNU ld appears to have the same behavior. It would
  probably make sense for LLD to error "duplicate symbol" but GNU ld is
  unlikely to adopt for compatibility reasons.

or can be formatting like an email quote:
