Then you need to say that!

And the fact that a "please take this patch, it's correct but doesn't
apply to upstream" patch is now broken is proof of why I didn't want to
take it in the first place!

Ugh.  How about I just revert the original patch and then you send me
backports of what is actually in Linus's tree so we don't have this
problem anymore?

Oh, and you got the stable mailing list address wrong as well :(

Please fix all of this up and resend.
