Thomas, you don't need to ask for each and every patch you find missing
from 2.6.32 *why* it's not there, as I explained to you in my last e-mail,
many patches are missing.

Better ask if we could include it and why you think it makes sense (eg:
you have verified that it fixes one problem you're experiencing), and
we'll all save a lot of time.

Thank you,
Willy
