Anyway, my script also tells me:

Upstream commit a33a5d2d16cb ("genirq/generic_pending: Do not lose pending affinity update")
 upstream: v4.18-rc1
   Fixes: 98229aa36caa ("x86/irq: Plug vector cleanup race")
     in linux-4.4.y: 996c591227d9
     upstream: v4.5-rc2
   Affected branches:
     linux-4.4.y (queued)
     linux-4.9.y (queued)
     linux-4.14.y

and, indeed, it looks like a33a5d2d16cb is missing in v4.14.y-queue.

I think that Greg's script didn't like a33a5d2d16cb pointing to the
wrong "fixes:" commit - 996c591227d9 rather than 98229aa36caa.


Interesting. Makes me wonder how my script found the correct reference.

FWIW, my scripts always try translating any commit id pointed to by a
tag into an "upstream commit id". This is mostly helpful with tags
pointing to linux-next commits or commits in private trees, but I
suppose it's also useful for cases such as the above :)

But then why did his script pick it up for 4.4.y and 4.9.y ?

I can try and guess: Greg's to-do list has an item named "Figure out why
I had to apply a33a5d2d16cb manually" :)
