There could be some effort made to better specify when "Fixes:" tags should be used. Right now the "Fixes:" tag is used far too often for changes like whitespace only or trivial typos corrections. And those changes can get backported. I believe "Fixes:" should be used only when changes have some runtime impact. "Fixes:" should not be used for changes that just silence compiler warnings using W=<123>.
