It should have been negative since it is returned with ERR_PTR().

Please always reference the commit that introduced the issue.

Is there some more precisely defined criteria for "always"?

Always when you fix a bug that was introduced by another commit?

I need the commit reference to check if I need to queue the fix to
current development kernel (i.e. v4.0-rcN).

If someone backports the commit, it's easier to check if the commit is
referenced by a later commit potentially fixing issues in it.

Sure, but all bugs are introduced by other commits. So my question was only along those lines, nothing more than that.

Regards,

Tvrtko
