Hi,

now I am confused. Neither looking at the logs nor the source
I can see the commit. Top commit is
9e48f0c28dd505e39bd136ec92a042b311b127c6
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git

I am sorry for being obnoxious here and it is entirely possible that
I am stupid, but this is a discrepancy that needs to be resolved.

	Regards
		Oliver
