Most probably the time of your submission is unfortunate, being at the time when submissions are not merged. I am in same situation with a couple of patches. I asked Mauro yesterday on IRC and he replied: I don't handle submissions during 3 weeks, during the merge window one week before, and the two weeks after that except when it is a bug that would affect the merge window (end of quote) So unless you make it clear about which "release branches" are affected, your submission is to be delayed - possibly up to 6 weeks or so. I was suggested to add tags Fixes: buggy-commit-id and Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
