The output of ".%03u" with the unsigned int in range [0, 4294966295] may
get truncated if the target buffer is not 12 bytes.

Hi,

This is the friendly patch-bot of Greg Kroah-Hartman.  You have sent him
a patch that has triggered this response.  He used to manually respond
to these common problems, but in order to save his sanity (he kept
writing the same thing over and over, yet to different people), I was
created.  Hopefully you will not take offence and will fix the problem
in your patch and resubmit it so that it can be accepted into the Linux
kernel tree.

You are receiving this message because of the following common error(s)
as indicated below:

- You have marked a patch with a "Fixes:" tag for a commit that is in an
  older released kernel, yet you do not have a cc: stable line in the
  signed-off-by area at all, which means that the patch will not be
  applied to any older kernel releases.  To properly fix this, please
  follow the documented rules in the
  Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst file for how to resolve
  this.

If you wish to discuss this problem further, or you have questions about
how to resolve this issue, please feel free to respond to this email and
Greg will reply once he has dug out from the pending patches received
from other developers.

thanks,

greg k-h's patch email bot

Did something change? I typically don't add Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
to the fixes I send and this is the first time I'm getting this email.

I can resend of course.

The bot doesn't catch everyone.

If you want it added to the stable trees, you MUST put the proper tags
in it.  Otherwise you are at the mercy of us sweeping the tree when we
get bored to find patches where developers/maintainers didn't tag things
properly :)
