Hello Jens,

That tag was added based on the output of git describe:
$ git describe 2a842acab109
v4.12-rc2-199-g2a842acab109

However, the following command shows that the above output is misleading and that the
stable tag is indeed not needed:
$ git log v4.12..origin/master | grep '^commit 2a842acab109'            
commit 2a842acab109f40f0d7d10b38e9ca88390628996

Bart.
