By the way the bots seem to contradict themselves:

> Commit message must refer to an issue

and a previous failing `jcheck-openjdk/jdk-14716` check run referred to a 
_commit_ message. Yet

> Please do not rebase or force-push to an active PR

implies that there would be no way to correct a mistaken commit message! 
Perhaps the bot messages should be adjusted to refer to the PR title, which I 
think is what they are actual checking, rather than “the commit message” (which 
is especially ambiguous if there are multiple commits).
