It is nice it is giving explanations for it's backporting decisions.

It would be nicer if those explanations were clearly marked as
coming from a non-human agent, and did not read like a human being
impatient for a patch to be backported.

Further the machine given explanations were clearly wrong.  Do you have
plans to do anything about that?  Using very incorrect justifications
for backporting patches is scary.

I still highly recommend that you get your tool to not randomly
cut out bits from links it references, making them unfollowable.

Thank you for that.

I assume going forward that AUTOSEL will not consider any patches
involving the core kernel and the user/kernel ABI going forward.  The
areas I have been involved with over the years, and for which my review
might be interesting.
