[PATCH 2/2] RelNotes: replace Gmane with real Message-IDs

From
Denton Liu <liu.denton@gmail.com>
Date
Nov 27, 2019, 19:28 UTC
Message-ID
<ebb2328a02dd96c740c5e9cf70abc03446dbf592.1574882812.git.liu.denton@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1574882812.git.liu.denton@gmail.com>

The only references to Gmane that remain are in RelNotes. Although these are definitely not in active use, they might be of historical interest for future readers so let's ensure that mail references are more robust.

Replace links to Gmane with links to LKML (which is our new preferred mailing list archive and has the Message-ID in the URL) and bare Gmane ID references with Message-IDs.

The Message-IDs were found by searching for "gmane:<id>" on https://public-inbox.org/git/ and taking the resulting message.
