All applied, but this was a disaster.

If you want bug fixes propagated into -stable you submit them to 'net'
from the beginning.

There is no other method by which to do this.

By merging all of these changes to net-next, you will now have to get
them accepted again into 'net', and then (and only then) can you make
a request for -stable inclusion.

You are making so much extra work for me, please don't do this ever
again.
