SubjectRe: [PATCH] Makefile: version.h macros KERNEL_EXTRAVERSION, LINUX_EXTRAVERSION_CODE
Dne 19.6.2014 16:44, Kamal Mostafa napsal(a):
> Adds new macro KERNEL_EXTRAVERSION(a,b,c,d) and value

Why don't you guys simply increment the third digit in the extended
stable tree and get support for KERNEL_VERSION() for free? You always
start after the respective stable branch has reached EOL, don't you?

Thanks,
Michal
