This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled
MIPS: BMIPS: Pretty print BMIPS5200 processor name
to the linux-4.2.y-queue branch of the 4.2.y-ckt extended stable tree
which can be found at:
https://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/linux/+git/linux-stable-ckt/log/?h=linux-4.2.y-queue

Subject: MIPS: BMIPS: Pretty print BMIPS5200 processor name
commit 37808d62afcdc420d98875c4b514c178d56f6815 upstream.
Just to ease debugging of multiplatform kernel, make sure we print
"Broadcom BMIPS5200" for the BMIPS5200 implementation instead of
Broadcom BMIPS5000.
