Hrm, not a great problem with this but this is the first I heard of this being proposed for stable?

You should have been copied on the original patch submission from Sasha for this to be included, let me dig...

Hm, I don't have my email archives on me, Sasha, you did cc: everyone, right?

thanks,

Ah, so I was copied on a mail but I don't really pay attention to most of the stable kernels other than the ones you maintain and it looked like an "I've added this to my tree" it was sitting there unread, though it did pass through my inbox. Usually these things are more of a "please pick for stable" than just a patch which caught me out a bit. Like I say I was just surprised there.
