Please, please, please do not send new series with In-Reply-To.  Trying to sort
through the different versions in my workflow was painful.  From
Documentation/process/maintainer-kvm-x86.rst:

Links
~~~~~
Do not explicitly reference bug reports, prior versions of a patch/series, etc.
via ``In-Reply-To:`` headers.  Using ``In-Reply-To:`` becomes an unholy mess
for large series and/or when the version count gets high, and ``In-Reply-To:``
is useless for anyone that doesn't have the original message, e.g. if someone
wasn't Cc'd on the bug report or if the list of recipients changes between
versions.

To link to a bug report, previous version, or anything of interest, use lore
links.  For referencing previous version(s), generally speaking do not include
a Link: in the changelog as there is no need to record the history in git, i.e.
put the link in the cover letter or in the section git ignores.  Do provide a
formal Link: for bug reports and/or discussions that led to the patch.  The
context of why a change was made is highly valuable for future readers.
