I disagree. If there's a simple, obvious, small fix that passes all the other criteria, it should go into -stable ASAP after passing review. Then the -stable maintainers will push the fix to Andrew/Linux, and it will go into the next 2.6.x.


Let's keep -stable as good as possible, while still abiding by all the other rules.
