That this commit is _currently_ on linux-next is just a matter of the
current state. The commit message that goes into the project's history
should probably not state "on linux-next";
this information is probably outdated or of no interest to any further
future reader at the time of reading.

So, just drop "On linux-next". The commit 43531edd53f0 ("drm/sprd: add
Unisoc's drm kms master") will exist until the end of time.

I would be happy about acknowledging my work of reporting with a
Reported-by tag, although I accidently send the report only to you
without cc-ing the mailing lists.

Please add:
Reported-by: Lukas Bulwahn <lukas.bulwahn@xxxxxxxxx>

That said you may also add a Reviewed-by tag now:
