WTF: patch "[PATCH] scsi: qla2xxx: Update manufacturer details" was seriously submitted to be applied to the 5.19-stable tree?

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

 



The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 5.19-stable tree.

I fail to see how this patch meets the stable kernel rules as found at
Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst.

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
