nitpick
checkpatch complains
Please use correct Fixes: style 'Fixes: <12 chars of sha1> ("<title line>")' -
ie: 'Fixes: 45a4672b9a6e ("crypto: p10-aes-gcm - Update Kconfig and
Makefile")'

There is no rule for 12 characters, but it is generally preferred.
I guess it is just a typo for you as you have correctly added other
Fixes tag.

If you end up re-spinning, please correct this

Also, just to understand,

"A Fixes: tag indicates that the patch fixes an issue in a previous
 commit. It is used to make it easy to determine where a bug originated,
 which can help review a bug fix"

from 
https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html

should there not be just single Fixes tag? as bug originated from one
commit, may be the commit that actually broke the functionality.

P.S.
Not expert on this, just trying to learn.
