OK. So this is a bit new and confusing, and it is definitely not my job,
as there are so-called MAINTAINERS for that, but I will try my best:


Here is the link:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=691c9ae099b9bcb5c27125af00a4a90120977458

and this ought to be the commit id:

commit	691c9ae099b9bcb5c27125af00a4a90120977458

SOB etc. please see link.

It is there, please see above!

Instead of doing a steady maintainers job, Mauro Carvalho Chehab prefers
to play kiddish games by substituting functionable kernel patches with
his own disfunctionable ones, as you can see here:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg15749.html

and here:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg15761.html

The maintainers job would have been to send the commit ID to
stable@xxxxxxxxxx, but foolish experiments seem to be more important
than a fix for a stable kernel.
