The tag looks great, but you were sending the pull request for
the branch "ux500-core", not for the tag "ux500-core-for-arm-soc".
This has happened to me a few times before, especially when pushing
the tag just before sending the pull request. In that case,
git-request-pull cannot find the tag on the server because it has
not been mirrored back from the git+ssh server to the publically
accessible one that it reads the tags from.
