Hmm, a "Fixes:" tag for a change in a comment?

This might generate additional work e.g. for downstreams (we at SUSE have
scripts checking "Fixes:" tags and require such changes to be applied to
kernels having the fixed patch applied).

That said I'd prefer not having a "Fixes:" tag for such changes, but maybe
this is just due to the fact that it would be me having to apply this
patch to the SUSE kernels...
