My script is a bit more fancy. It uses sqlite databases to keep track of
commits.

The initial setup takes a while, but subsequent runs are decently fast.
Example use: Run "./setup.sh" followed by "./missing.py 5.2" to get:

Checking branch linux-5.2.y
SHA 5319277968c1 [025bf37725f1] ('gpio: Fix return value mismatch of function gpiod_get_from_of_node()')
  fixed by upstream commit 2a6fc3cb5cb6
  Fix may be missing from linux-5.2.y; trying to apply it results in conflicts/errors
SHA b942dcdab8d1 [bd293d071ffe] ('dm bufio: fix deadlock with loop device')
  fixed by upstream commit cf3591ef8329
  Fix is missing from linux-5.2.y and applies cleanly
SHA 7c0044c1eec3 [d35661fcf95d] ('selftests/bpf: add wrapper scripts for test_xdp_vlan.sh')
  fixed by upstream commit 3035bb72ee47
  Fix is missing from linux-5.2.y and applies cleanly
SHA 60956b018bfe [883a2a80f79c] ('Input: elantech - enable SMBus on new (2018+) systems')
  fixed by upstream commit f3b5720cabaf
  Fix is missing from linux-5.2.y and applies cleanly

which seems about right.
