Just add a: Cc: stable in the "signed-off-by:" area of the patch, and when it goes into Linus's tree, the -stable team will be automatically notified of it and we will pick it up. It needs to be in Linus's tree before we can add it to the -stable releases. thanks, greg k-h -- 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/
