(I'm the person who created this checkpatch warning.) Fixes tags aren't just for regressions they're for any bug fixes. So the Fixes tag here should point to when the driver was introduced. Even if the Fixes tag points to the first git commit, it's useful information so, please, always include it. regards, dan carpenter
