No disrespect to other mailing list archives, but the local part of their URLs will become pretty much meaningless once the archives go out of service, and we learned the lesson hard way when $gmane stopped serving.

Let's point into https://lore.kernel.org/ for an article that can be found there, because the local part of the URL has the Message-Id: that can be used to find the same message in other archives, even if lore goes down.

You asked for this patch to be reviewed, so I did it. It looks perfectly fine to me.
