Yes, email sucks :-(

I'm working to fix it... sorry for the noise.

Good question.  In this case, just say [PATCH qom-cpu...] since this is
against the qom-cpu tree.

Or even an RFC tag if that's appropriate.

I wouldn't recommend sending patches meant for merging that depend on
other series still on the list without an RFC tag.  For no other reason
that you'll likely confuse someone trying to apply it.
