Yes, you put the Cc: line in the commit, but you don't actually send it to that address. The only time that you do mail that address is when the commit is _in_ mainline and it doesn't have the Cc: tag or the stable team haven't picked it up. > I submitted a patch six months ago for the exact same thing and was > informed that others already had a pending patch in your queue for it. > However, I can't for the life of me locate the thread atm.

I also see no notifications from the patch system for a patch from you... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
