I'm afraid there has been a confusion here, and the patch is not correct.

 The bug was already addressed in oe-core earlier:

commit 2156ef9e6defa3ec9087789fcea25fb4fee7b83c
Author: Luka Krstic <[email protected]>
Date:   Thu Dec 18 10:11:38 2025 +0100

    patchtest: reject Upstream-Status after scissors

but the bugzilla ticket was never closed.

Then https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15940#c1 was
interpreted as a request to downgrade it to a warning, but we should
not be doing that: it means patchtest will not longer actually notify
of the issue on the oe-core mailing list.

I understand some other layers intentionally put it after the
scissors; if they're using patchtest, they can disable this particular
test or configure it to produce some kind of soft fail, but in oe-core
it should remain a hard fail.
