This has been discussed endlessly in the past, please see the lkml
archives for details if you are interested. It all comes down to the
issue, how do you classify a bug fix as a specific "kind"[1]?

Is there some reason you don't trust me in my usage of the word "must"
here? If so, then please feel free to go through all of the individual
patches, which I post, and make the judgement call for yourself.
