I understand checkpatch.pl warned you, but for stable patches this should still be [ Upstream commit ad993a95c508417acdeb15244109e009e50d8758 ]
Stable maintainers, do you think it is good idea to tweak checkpatch.pl to detect these are backports(with help of Upstream commit, commit .. upstream, or cherrypicked from lines ?) and it shouldn't warn about long SHA ?
Nope! Why would you ever run checkpatch on a patch that is already upstream?
confused,
