I created this patch using the current 4.12.y branch. The code it fixes
went in 4.10.
The one thing I couldn't figure out by just looking at other stable
commits was how you were supposed to know what tree I based the patch off so
you had an idea where/how to apply it to. All I saw was that people
just added 'commit xxxx upstream' to the commit log, but not what it was
backported to.
How was I supposed to give that info to you?
Thank you,
Chris
