You will get an automated email saying it didn't apply and then you provide a backported version. Or you send a properly backported version to sta...@vger.kernel.org before then, with the git commit id of the patch in Linus's tree. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
