It references the specific changeset you point to above already.

Same thing goes for the 2.6.26-stable patch as well. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
