Added stable to CC since the patch series this patch fixes is in stable-queue.
Oh, it wasn't clear from the commit message. But I guess the "Fixes:" tag would have caught Greg's eye regardless.
Ugh, I am _so_ behind in looking at patches that only have a Fixes: tag in it and not a "Cc: stable@" tag, due to the recent high-volume of the latter.
But they will end up in a mbox that I need to dig out of eventually, but it will take time, so if you know you want a patch in a stable release, it's much easier to just use the "Cc: stable@" tag please.
