Or do you mean submission directly from a developer's git tree to stable via git pull by Greg? Is this been done?

Nevertheless I could send another adjustment for Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt if this is another actual submission path. -- Stefan Richter -=====-==-=- -=-- ==--- http://arcgraph.de/sr/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
