------------------------------------------------------
NOTE:
This is going to be the last 3.14.y kernel release. You should have
moved off of it by now to a more "modern" kernel, like 4.4, or even
better yet, 4.7 or newer. After this release, it will be considered
end-of-life and not receive any more updates.
------------------------------------------------------
This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 3.14.79 release.
There are 11 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response
to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please
let me know.
Responses should be made by Sun Sep 11 15:31:40 UTC 2016.
Anything received after that time might be too late.
The whole patch series can be found in one patch at:
kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/stable-review/patch-3.14.79-rc1.gz
or in the git tree and branch at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable-rc.git linux-3.14.y
and the diffstat can be found below.
thanks,
