[U-Boot] [PATCH v2] patman: Allow specifying the message ID your series is in reply to

[Doug Anderson]

Some versions of git don't seem to prompt you for the message ID that
your series is in reply to.  Allow specifying this from the command
line.

Changes in v2:
- Adjusted docstring wording as per Otavio Salvador.
