This? http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/anholt/drm-intel.git;a=commitdiff;h=d765898970f35acef960581f678b9da9d5c779fa;hp=1b8e69662e1a086878bf930a6042daf7f8a076cc

It doesn't have cc:stable in the changelog, so there's a reasonable
chance that it will get lost.

The -stable guys troll the commit list looking for mainline commits
which mention stable@...nel.org in the changelog.
