Subject: linux-next: Fixes tag needs some work in Linus' tree

Hi all,

[Just a note for some future improvement]

In commit

  2c4f1fcbef0b ("kprobe: Do not use uaccess functions to access kernel memory that can fault")

Fixes tag

  Fixes: 9da3f2b7405 ("x86/fault: BUG() when uaccess helpers fault on kernel addresses")

has these problem(s):

  - SHA1 should be at least 12 digits long
    Can be fixed by setting core.abbrev to 12 (or more) or (for git v2.11
    or later) just making sure it is not set (or set to "auto").

Cheers,
Stephen Rothwell
