Jason, I think it's better if you have to wait to see the patch in
Linus' tree. Then, specify upstream commit, indicate that this is a
backport, and what -stable kernel versions you are targeting too so we
make it easier for Greg.

We've been dealing with netfilter -stable submissions ourselves, so CC
netfilter-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

I think that's all.

Thanks.
