There is a correct format for this.

Patch 5e6dc548e453 ('drivers: staging: speakup: serialio: only use
platform specific SERIAL_PORT_DFNS.') broke the port information ...

If you specify fewer than 12 numbers from the git hash it might not be
unique next year.  If you leave out the patch title then no one
knows what you are talking about because we are not robots and we are
better at remembering text instead if hex numbers.  Also CC the guilty
party instead of discussing them behind their backs.

No, that's not true.  There is a #define SERIAL_PORT_DFN at the start of
the file.  I am confused.

This should be: <linux/serial.h> probably.

This has an off-by-one bug > vs >=.  Also use the ARRAY_SIZE() macro.

	if (index >= ARRAY_SIZE(rs_table)) {

Could you move the use of index below the check?  Current static
analysis tools are deficient and prefer "check first and then use" order.
