Can you use the Fixes tag so it's machine parseable?
Fixes: ff52a57a7a42 ("staging: wilc1000: move the allocation of cmd out of wilc_enqueue_cmd()")
With the fixes tag, say someone pulls ff52a57a7a42 into their code, they
will know to pull this patch as well. Also scientists will be able to
measure the time between bug and fix and write a scholarly paper about
it.

Thanks for your suggestion.
Will include the 'Fixes' tag and submit patch v2 version.
