Brandon, when you want patches to be added to the stable tree, just add
a:
	Cc: stable <stable@xxxxxxxxxx>
to the signed-off-by area of the patch.  That way, when they get merged
into Linus's tree eventually, they will be automagically sent to the
stable@xxxxxxxxxx alias, so I know to add it to the tree at that time.

It saves you time, and me time, so I don't have to go hunt for this
upstream sometime in the future.

thanks,
