You really need to submit this properly. You need to post it as if it were a real patch submission upstream, full commit log message, and at the top of the commit log message a reference to the upstream commit in Linus's tree, like so: [ Upstream commit XXXXXXXXX ] -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
