WTF: patch "[PATCH] ARM: multi_v7_defconfig: enable network for BeagleBone Black" was seriously submitted to be applied to the 3.12-stable tree?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 3.12-stable tree.

I fail to see how this patch meets the stable kernel rules as found at
Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt.

I could be totally wrong, and if so, please respond to 
<stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> and let me know why this patch should be
applied.  Otherwise, it is now dropped from my patch queues, never to be
seen again.

thanks,

greg k-h
