We use Fixes: in drm/i915 to basically indicate that the referenced
commit has a bug that actually needs to be fixed, this patch is the fix,
and should go wherever the referenced commit goes. Annotating typo fixes
and missing static keywords and such is just noise from *our* POV, and
need to be filtered out.
