There is a patchworks queue that you can see here: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/bundle/davem/stable/?state=* It contains the patches which Dave has selected, but not yet handed off to Greg. If Greg already has the patch, then it will be here: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git A quick way to find whether the patch is in this stable-queue is to simply clone the repo, and then git grep the mainline commit ID, e.g. stable-queue$ git grep -l 284041ef21fdf2e releases/3.0.84/ipv6-fix-possible-crashes-in-ip6_cork_release.patch releases/3.4.51/ipv6-fix-possible-crashes-in-ip6_cork_release.patch releases/3.9.8/ipv6-fix-possible-crashes-in-ip6_cork_release.patch stable/stable-queue$ -- 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
