Submitting patches document mentions that 'Fixes:' helps stable kernel
team in determining which stable kernel versions should receive the fix.

However, there is a note:
"Attaching a Fixes: tag does not subvert the stable kernel rules process
nor the requirement to Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org on all stable patch
candidates."
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.19/process/submitting-patches.html#using-reported-by-tested-by-reviewed-by-suggested-by-and-fixes

Stable kernel versions older than 5.10 don't suffer from this issue.
