Hi Sasha,
I have recently received a few mails from you with [PATCH AUTOSEL], such as this one. I'm wondering what are the criteria to select these patches? This one does not have a "Fixes" tag and, I believe, stable was not CCed of the original patch. Do you have another selection method ?
I really sorry if you already got this question a thousand times.
I have nothing against this patch making its way to a stable release BTW, it won't do any harm.
Sasha, I think by now we need a "FAQ" link somewhere to point people at that describes how these patches are being selected as it comes up every other week or so, and I imagine you are getting tired of repeating yourself :)
If you want me to find some place on kernel.org to put the text, I'll be glad to do so.
Let me write something up and run it by Julia as well.
