I'm not sure I understand the question...you gave a link to Linus's repository, so you're aware that the patch is in the mainline. Yes, it was pulled in during the 3.11 merge window, if that's the question.

Thank you for answering the question I meant to ask. In the early days of Linux, people weren't so gentle.

Given a git commit ID and a local up-to-date clone, you can figure that out with:

$ git describe --contains 75485363ce8552698bfb9970d901f755d5713cca
v3.11-rc1~99^2~392

which tells you that the first tag containing this commit was v3.11-rc1, so it made the window. It used to be that you could get this information from kernel.org's "raw" gitweb output, saving the need for a local clone, but they recently switched to cgit which doesn't seem to provide that info.

Has X-Git-Tag been mentioned to cgit upstream?

I sent a mail to the kernel.org webmaster about a month ago, because they said "If you notice that something that used to work with gitweb no longer works for you with cgit, please drop us a note", but haven't received a reply. I haven't sent anything to cgit upstream though.
