This is not the format we use for referring to commits.

That is the correct format.

I forgot to mention...  When you do eventually resubmit this, do NOT use 
the commit message above.  It says absolutely nothing about what the 
patch actually does or why it is needed.

It's okay to mention that this reinstates something that had to be 
reverted.  But you also need to include the information that was in the 
original commit.
