Sorry, I didn't look at the warnings for you patches yesterday.

Fixes tag: Fixes: d7e75a325cb2 ("net/mlx5e: Add offloading of E-Switch TC pedit (header re-write) action"')
Has these problem(s):
	- Subject has leading but no trailing quotes
	- Subject does not match target commit subject
	  Just use
		git log -1 --format='Fixes: %h ("%s")'
