Ah, I guess I misunderstood what Linus once told me.
I thought the signed tag remain in the history once
merged even if no longer named.

Anyway, I pushed the tag to kuba/linux.git
phy-qcom-sgmii-eth-add-set_mode-and-validate-methods
if you prefer the real / signed thing. I don't like
having these random tags in netdev trees.
