That is odd, as that is not what you wrote in the patch itself:
Fixes: 9027c4639ef1 ("ALSA: pcm: Call ack() whenever appl_ptr is updated")
So is the Fixes: tag here incorrect?
thanks,

I did not add the Fixes tag. I guess Takashi Iwai did.
I think that 9027c4639ef1 added some functionality that was broken by
80fe7430c7085951 and which my patch corrects. So the Fixes: 9027c4639ef1
tag refers to the actual functionality, not the breaking of it.
I have no idea if that is the correct usage of the Fixes tag which, as I
said, I did not add.
