Hi Stephen,

Sorry, that is my fault, I put the Fixes tag into the submitted patch.
Thanks for the git configuration hint. All my machines were configured
correctly except the one I generated the Fixes tag on, ups :(

Normally checkpatch.pl does a good job identifying errors in referenced
commits. Unfortunately it did not complain in this case. Would be nice
to add this check. I skimmed through the appropriate part of the script
but I do not feel like adding this feature myself, Perl is not my domain.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
Michal
