Once the hotfix branch is merged on release branch, we would merge the release 
branch to master, that will bring the hotfix on master as well.

We don’t want to encourage working on master for fixes that qualify for release 
branches directly so ideally we should not git am -s the patch on master. But 
there is scope for non-strictness for a situation needing git am -s <patch> on 
master directly, it would be at the discretion of the RM and committers.
