Thats what it looks like. And thats what I'm complaining about. But in
fact that file is there since v3.13-rc7 (if the tag is really correct in
my patch file), since at least end of 2014.



And after some checking its in linux-3.13-rc1 from 2013-11-22, which
indicates that such damage has already happend earlier. At least I have
a record from Nov 2014 for the patch file. There is a slim chance that I
tweaked that particular tag menually in the patch file.

This is a list of changed tags in my patch collection:
