If you want to send a message like this to Greg and to others who maintain earlier kernel versions then I suggest you just spell it all out in plain old English in the main changelog. That's not very useful information for people who are following mainline, but a couple paragraphs in a changelog won't kill anyone. So can you please send me those couple of paragraphs and I'll paste them in there headlined "-stable suggestions". -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
