Please don't wrap Fixes tags, let it overflow the line.

Please don't do this.

We are working on removing all the driver version strings from the
kernel because upstream they are strictly inferior to the kernel
version alone.

For a fix like this it's especially bad to bump the version, as it
could cause a conflict during backporting. I'm not saying it will in
this case, but as a general rule fixes should be minimal in size.
