Additionally, please Cc linux-api for patches that modify the kernel ABI. >From https://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/linux-api-ml.html: "The kernel source file Documentation/SubmitChecklist notes that all Linux kernel patches that change userspace interfaces should be CCed to linux-api@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, so that the various parties who are interested in API changes are informed. For further information, see https://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/linux-api-ml.html" Thanks, Bart.
