715dd8950d4e is your local hash for 1/5, right? So I would drop the
hash, because it may be confusing.

It may be possible to remove the first line (since 1/5 will only apply
to 6.8.x and it is already the previous patch in the series, while the
`Fixes` tag here may make it clear that 2/5 should still go everywhere
regardless of 1/5), but I guess it does not hurt to be extra clear.

What about:

    Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org # 6.8.x: rust: phy: implement `Send`
for `Registration`
    Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org # 6.1+
    Fixes: 247b365dc8dc ("rust: add `kernel` crate")

Cheers,
