What does it mean to References: a commit? The message text doesn't say
anything about this commit.

Does this patch fix commit 04a68a3 or c875d2c? If so, there should be a
Fixes: tag.

The canonical format for commit references is

04a68a35ce6d ("drm/i915/gvt: Disable access to stolen memory as a guest")
c875d2c1b808 ("iommu/vt-d: Exclude devices using RMRRs from IOMMU API domains")

In particular, note that 12 digits is preferred for sha1 references to
avoid ambiguity in the kernel git repo.

Please use References: for stuff like this. Link: is reserved for the
backlink to the patch and discussion.

With a Fixes: tag it would be possible to decide which stable kernels to
backport to.

I'm sorry, but from the fixes backports POV it still lacks clarity. I
wouldn't know if and where this should be backported.


BR,
Jani.
