Please use this format instead:

Fixes: cc4edae4b924 ("x86/hyper-v: Add HvFlushGuestAddressList hypercall support")

And don't type it by hand, use a git alias for it:
	git show -s --abbrev-commit --abbrev=12 --pretty=format:"%h (\"%s\")%n"

You also messed up your To: line, keeping anyone from being able to
respond to this message who do not know how to hand-edit the response
line :(

thanks,
