Sure; I've already applied it to mmc-next for 3.6. > Doing this strictly means people have to keep tracking if the fix hits > mainline and remember to resubmit it to stable afterwards.

No, the stable team look for patches entering mainline with "Cc: [email protected]" in the commit message, and apply them to stable@ at that point. That's the right time to apply them. So, as I understand it, you did the right thing in having "Cc: <[email protected]>" inside your commit message, and the wrong thing in sending the mail to stable@ at the same time. That's why I removed it from CC.
