Is this an oversight? Other than that: IMHO the subject for this type of report could be improved. Currently it's: Subject: Patch "spi: imx: add a device specific prepare_message callback" has been added to the 4.19-stable tree The most important part of it is "4.19-stable", but that only appears after character column 90 and so my MUA doesn't show it unless the window is wider than my default setting. Maybe make this: Subject: for-stable-4.19: "spi: imx: add a device specific prepare_message callback" ? Another thing I wonder about is: The mail contains If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. but it wasn't sent to stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
