Hi!
Anyone bothers to stabilize 3.14.11-r1 anytime soon because of subj?
Anyone = me. You can address these concerns to me personally as I am
responsible. Bugs are best so we have a public record.
I am aware of the issue. There have been too many rapid stabilizations
because of CVE-2014-3153 and other issues. It doesn't help if I
stabilize a kernel which panics on someone's hardware that I can't test
on --- security issue or not. Been there done that. There is a balance
of risk which your statement does not take into account.
