For the benefit of those playing at home that's "ASoC: intel/sdw_utils:
move dai id common macros" which is in -next as 8f87e292a34813e. It's
not great to base a fix for something that's in Linus' tree like this
one which has:
Fixes: 96eb81851012 ("ASoC: SOF: amd: add interrupt handling for SoundWire manager devices")
in it, and any such dependency really needs to get called out in the
cover letter if it exists.
In general you should expect bug fixes to be applied for Linus' tree by
default, especially if they're tagged as fixing a particular commit in
there. That means no dependencies on anything that's already in -next
unless explicitly called out, and if the thing in -next is just a
cleanup or refactoring then generally it's best to just do the fix for
Linus' tree and then separately merge it up to -next and integrate with
whtaever cleanup/refactoring is going on there.
Please include human readable descriptions of things like commits and
issues being discussed in e-mail in your mails, this makes them much
easier for humans to read especially when they have no internet access.
I do frequently catch up on my mail on flights or while otherwise
travelling so this is even more pressing for me than just being about
making things a bit easier to read.
