OK, I see the problem, but I don't currently have an explanation for
how it happened.  The scsi-fixes tag somehow became attached to a push
of the misc tree for the next merge window instead of the fixes branch.

I've reset it to where it should be

commit 1bc5ad3a6acdcf56f83272f2de1cd2389ea9e9e2
Author: Manish Rangankar <manish.rangankar@...ium.com>

    scsi: qla4xxx: skip error recovery in case of register disconnect.

So it should all be correct if you re-pull.

I suppose it's good that the checks and balances of changelog +
diffstat caught this; I'll poke about in my current preparation scripts
to see if I can find out what went wrong.
