What we do in such cases, usually, is add

Link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=214453

to the commit message, under the SOB chain.

Also, you probably also should give in a Fixes: tag the commit ID of the
patch your fix is for, so that your fix gets automatically backported to
stable.

I.e.:

Fixes: 12-char-sha1-abbrev ("Commit title")
Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org>

HTH.
