I submit those patches at a time of my own choosing, and if you read stable@vger.kernel.org you will see when I do that. I let patches cook in Linus's tree for a week or so before submitting to -stable so that any bugs in those changes are more likely to be discovered before the change is in -stable too. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
