I have more or less the same setup using a longer format and using the
git-log instead of git-show. This way I can just do a git fixes
drivers/gpu/drm/msm and spot the commit in question.
I've long desired to have this be part of checkpatch.pl, but nobody has
done it yet. Maybe figuring out if the commit exists is harder than I
think.
The issue is that the commit might exist, but might be not the ancestor
of the commit in question. And when we do checkpatch, we have no way to
check the lineage.
