Thanks good, but you should not reply to v2, you should post
a clean new patch, with revised commit message and change.

Yes.
And as I understand there is no need actually CC the patch to
stable <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, the text in commit message
is enough for their tools to pickup the patch  whenever it
gets merged.

Yes, these lines are supposed to be there in the final merged commit.
Maintainers can add them, but it's nice to make life easier for busy
maintainers and add those line when you re-post the patch,
so the maintainer doesn't need to look it back in emails.

Thanks,
Amir.
