Hi,
Could you please pick up exfat stable patches ?
Hi Sasha,
I see that the upstream commits already have stable tags and don't need modifications for backporting, so there is no need to explicitly send them here - they will be picked up automatically.
Okay, I see:)
Hi Greg,
Sorry for late reply. I checked this mail late.
As Sasha said, these will normally get picked up automatically. We wait until a patch is in a release from Linus (i.e. a -rc) before taking them, but we can take them earilier if you ask for them.
Okay, I like that you apply them after 5.8-rc7 is released if these patches can be applied in 5.7. I was just worried that 5.7 stable kernel release is closed without these patches being applied :)
You did include one patch in this series that was not marked for stable, so I've taken that, and the other 3 now to make it easy.
Ah, okay, I will check stable mark in patches next time.
Thanks for your mail!
thanks,
greg k-h
