Hi Kalle,

Due to recent events we were asked about some vulnerability fixes
for
brcmfmac. We already fixed a couple of things without referring to a
so-called CVE-ID, which is what people are asking for. Do we have a
upstream policy on that? I could not really find anything in the
Documentation folder (but I may have overlooked it). Might be worth
mentioning in the commit message like with the coverity ids.

Sure.

git log --grep "CVE-"

shows it being done frequently.

Right. Failed to do the obvious ;-)

Thanks,
Arend
