I've never seen anyone use this prefix before.

What does the date really help?  In staging, we apply everything on top
of staging-next and if it doesn't apply then we don't investigate, we
just say "doesn't apply.  resend if needed".

We may as well just say [PATCH linux-next].  No one is ever going to
look up the date if it doesn't apply to the latest linux-next.
