Bjorn, this email was marked as spam, because:
It has a from address in google.com but has failed google.com's required tests for authentication
in particular, it looks like you used a non-google smtp server (kernel.org) to send the email, so there is no DKIM hash (or perhaps google just uses some other non-standard marker for "this actually came from google"). So gmail marks it as spam because dmarc fails:
dmarc=fail (p=REJECT dis=NONE) header.from=google.com
Just to let you know. If you use your google.com email, you do need to go through the google smtp server.
This may or may not be new - I didn't go and look at old messages of yours, but it is possible that google.com enabled dmarc/dkim recently.
Argh, thanks for letting me know. Looks like I've had this broken for a long time, but I didn't notice. I think I have it fixed so git will record the author as bhelgaas@google.com, but git/stgit will send email from helgaas@kernel.org via the kernel.org smtp server.
