Subject: Re: [PATCH net-next 0/2] tipc: do some fixups


Referring to commit purely by SHA1 ID is ambiguous.

If the change is placed in other trees, such as the -stable
branches, they will have different SHA1 IDs.

This is why you must always refer to commits as the
SHA1 ID followed by the commit header line text of
the commit in parenthesis and double quotes, like
this:

Commit 0cee6bbe06f ("tipc: remove unnecessary variables and conditions")

Please fix this up in this entire patch series and resubmit.
