I already though about how to tag every patch I send as Cc: stable,
because almost any fix I send either goes through some -next or even
-next-next or already is for some stable kernel.
(I usually don't even look at -rc kernels, just for some special things
I'm waiting for, like this of-gpio for davinci.)
