Comment 63 for bug 579276

Having Rusty pick it up should bring it (usually first to linux-next) to Linus tree. As soon as it hits there we can go on with adding it to 10.04 and 10.10. Sorry about the procedure being somewhat tedious, but this makes sure that relevant maintainers have looked at the change and it is being integrated for any newer release. As we see from the fact that this got forgotten so long, it is just too easy to drop things without being anal to a certain degree.

I will try to monitor the tree myself but feel free to nudge us with a reminder to the kernel team mailing list in case this slips by unnoticed (the only good thing about it being marked as stable material is that over time it would come back from the 2.6.32.y longterm tree, but it is understandably something that should better be in sooner than later).
