Yeah, I realized that the commit is for an OOT patch ;-)
The main point is that Patch descriptions should be self-contained, bringing
everything that is needed to describe the patch on it. It is acceptable to have
URLs pointing to some external references that will be there as long as the
driver will remain at the Linux Kernel. The way the description currently is,
it doesn't fulfill such criteria.

Btw, I was unable to find such commit, even googling for it.
So, even now, people will find problems if they want to understand the
description. Things will become a lot worse after a couple of years.
So, such description has to be changed.
For now, I'm merging the other patches of the PR without this one.
