As this patch is not supposed to go upstream (because it's already > there) - do you think this is still necessary? I looked at your revised patch (v2). This information is not for the commit message but should be placed at the beginning of the patch file `files/export_falloc_h.patch` [1]. My suggestion is the following. upstream: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=040922c04cf2c8ac70be2e88a8a9614ecdb41d2e comment: Patch is present in Linux kernel >= 2.6.25. > Otherwise I'd just adjust the patch summary and then resubmit the patch > as v2.
