Subject: Re: scripts/config: fix variable substitution command

Hi,

The ChangeLog from [1] says:

Commit 229455bc02b87f7128f190c4491b4ceffff38648 accidentally changed
the separator between sed `s' command and its parameters from ':' to
'/'.
Revert this change.

*** Bad commit reference: 229455bc02b87f7128f190c4491b4ceffff38648 ***
(Linus-tree)

To quote [2] and see its EXAMPLE:

"If you want to refer to a specific commit, don't just refer to the
SHA-1 ID of the commit. Please also include the oneline summary of
the commit, to make it easier for reviewers to know what it is about.

Example:

Commit e21d2170f36602ae2708 ("video: remove unnecessary
platform_set_drvdata()") removed the unnecessary
platform_set_drvdata(), but left the variable "dev" unused,
delete it."

That's why the commit-id without the subject-line is no good help.
It does not help anyone when you reference a local GIT or linux-kbuild
GIT related commit-id.

So, can you point me/us to the correct commit with subject, please?!
Is this patch even "CC: stable"?

Thanks.

Regards,
