As this patch isn't upstream yet, if you want it to be included
automatically in the next -stable release when it is added to Linus's
tree, just add a:
  Cc: stable <stable@...nel.org>

to the signed-off-by: area.  When it goes into Linus's tree, we will
automatically get notified and it will then be added to the -stable tree
with no additional work for you.

hope this helps,
