Ah, no. Usually that line is placed into stable commits that are
cherry-picked to point to the original commit sha in the mainline
tree. In any case, I didn't find c91951f15978, hence my question.
Anyway, for normal patch submissions in future, please don't add
it into the log, we'll remove it this time.

Thanks,
Daniel
