That is correct. These patches were meant to be sent as reply to the patch you
pulled today (that contained the initial Cc: stable@...). These were sent to
avoid the cherry-pick of feature patches necessary to merge it and still give
an idea how these versions could be fixed after the mentioned commit hit
Linus' tree.
Somebody forgot the set the In-Reply-To:.. that made these mails missing the
right context.
But we were wondering how to handle this situation anyway. The
stable_kernel_rules.txt didn't gave us the correct information (or we did not
understand them correctly) how to submit backported patches for affected
kernels. Are there some general rules that we should be aware of?
Thanks,
Sven
