It was simply that it was the tip of torvalds/master at the time the

of guidance on commit selection in the patch guide. If there is a

follow it.
Barring a specific dependency, pick something that is more likely to
have been tested. -rc's are fine. Linus's releases are fine.
Random snapshots in time are not likely to be widely tested and
shouldn't be used.
Will do, thanks.
