Please use "Link:" as explained by the kernel's documentation in
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst
Documentation/process/5.Posting.rst (disclaimer: I recently made this
more explicit, but the concept it old). That's important, as people have
tools that rely on it -- I for example run one to track regressions, but
I might not be the only one running a tool that relies on proper tags.
And FWIW: I'm all for making this more explicit, but people already use
various different tags (BugLink is just one of them) for that and that
just results in a mess. I proposed consistent tags, but that didn't get
much feedback. Maybe I should try again. Makes me wonder: where does
BugLink come from? Is that something that people are used to from
GitLab, GitHub, or something?
Ciao, Thorsten
