Hi Andrew,
I was suggesting this during your mm workflow session at LSF/MM so this
is just a friendly reminder. Could you add something like tip tree and
reference the original email where the patch came from? Tip uses

Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/$msg_id

and this is really helpful when trying to find the discussion around the
patch. I would even welcome to add such a link for each follow up -fix*
patches and do
[ $email: $(comment for the follow up chaneg)]
Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/$msg_id

So it is clear what the follow up change was.

Thanks a lot!
