Hi,

[This is an automated email]

This commit has been processed because it contains a "Fixes:" tag,
fixing commit: .

The bot has tested the following trees: v5.2.16, v4.19.74, v4.14.145, v4.9.193, v4.4.193.


The fixes tag is 7e8b88a30b085 which was added to mainline in 4.17.
According to this email, it applies fine to 5.2 and 4.19, but fails on
4.14 and earlier. As the commit was added in 4.17 that makes perfect
sense. Can you update your scripts to test when the fixes commit was
added, and not send spam about it not applying to stable trees where
it's not applicable.

The script already does that. What happened here is that it got confused
with your previous "Fixes:" statement in the commit message and went
haywire.

I thought that something like this shouldn't happen because I grep for
"^fixes:", but looks like something is broken. I'll go fix that...
