If it's something that is helpful for you, just add a git alias?

$ cat ~/git-fixes-date-filter 
#!/usr/bin/perl                                                                                                                                                         
# Save as e.g. ~/bin/git-fixes-date-filter
while (<STDIN>) {
     if (/^(\s*Fixes:\s+)([0-9a-f]+)\s+\("(.*)"\)/) {
         my ($prefix, $sha, $desc) = ($1, $2, $3);
         chomp(my $date = `git log -1 --format=%as $sha 2>/dev/null`);
         if ($date) {
             print "$prefix$sha ($date,\"$desc\")\n";
             next;
         }
     }
     print;
}

Add to .gitconfig:

	[alias]
	        lg = "!git log \"$@\" | ~/git-fixes-date-filter | less -R #"

And then "git lg" will do exactly what you're asking for:

$ git lg -1 origin/master | grep Fixes
     Fixes: cc1e127bfa95 (2022-05-09,"random: remove ratelimiting for in-kernel unseeded randomness")
