[stripped the CC list to avoid spamming people, we all get enough mail]
Thx for fixing the regression. Sadly the fix didn't link to all places
where the issue was reported using "Link:" tags, as explained by both
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst and
Documentation/process/5.Posting.rst
Please consider placing them in the future, at least one tool is relying
on the presence of such links: my regression tracking bot 'regzbot',
which using them to automatically detect patch posting and commits
fixing tracked regressions -- which makes my my life as the Linux
kernel's regression tracker a lot easier, as otherwise I have to tell
regzbot about fixes manually:
#regzbot fixed-by: dd7f5a11ac5a6f733f422dc22b
tia!
Ciao, Thorsten
