v3.13 was released Jan 19, so this came during the v3.14 merge window.  I
like to have things in -next for a while before asking Linus to pull them,
and I try to keep it to regression fixes after the merge window, i.e.,
things that used to work, but don't work any more.  But that's all standard
procedure that you already know, and maybe you can make a case for
accelerating this.
