I suppose you need to apply at stable tree too, right?

Hi Greg, would you still accept the bug-fix for this release (v5.0)? Or I send you later?

It is enough to have the "Fixes" tag to get patch backported into all
relevant kernel versions.

I just want to point out that the bug existed for a very long time and
apparently didn't bother anybody, hence it's not an urgent fix.

No it is not.  My scripts do NOT trigger off of the fixes: tag, please
read:

Okay, my bad then. Maybe this is something that could warned by checkpatch.. adding Joe and Andy to the thread.

Why?  It's allowed to put fixes: tags for a patch that does not belong
in a stable tree.  That happens all the time, and is encouraged.  Look
at some of the stuff in linux-next now, we have Fixes: for commits that
are still in linux-next as well, because we do not rebase our trees.
When they all merge into Linus's tree, all is good.

So this is not something that checkpatch needs to do anything about.

At least that might help in cases like this if maintainer is also oblivious.

I guess it wouldn't hurt at all to add a "green" warning if there is a "Fixes" tag and no "stable", something like this:

WARNING: There is a "Fixes" tag and no "Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org>", please add the stable tag if patch is intended to be backported to stable kernels.

If the maintainer is "oblivious", they are not going to be running
checkpatch :)

Remember, the "Fixes:" tag is a relatively new thing compared to the cc:
stable tag, which has been a documented requirement for over a decade.
Yes, some subsystems do not even do cc: stable, but that is because
those subsystem maintainers do not want to do it, or do not care.
Again, checkpatch is not going to help them.

checkpatch is not a panacea, people still have to use their brains.

My point that either submitter or maintainers may catch up the problem if at least there are means to report the problem. So I'm still thinking it's not a bad idea to add the warning message, maybe even for the "checkpatch --strict" option only. I'm not insisting that it is something super-necessary and it's up to you guys to decide in the end.
