I chose this tag to assist stable kernel maintainers so that the change 
does not produce merge conflicts backporting to older kernel versions.

In reality, the timing bug existed since the driver was first introduced 
but there is no need for this driver to be supported in kernel versions 
that old.

Do you want me to add such to the commit message?
