With the above cc tag, Won't this get automatically included in the stable
tree once it is merged into mainline? As I know, we only need to explicitly
send the patch to stable at vger.kernel.org only when that patch was already
merged into mainline without the corresponding cc stable tag and we also want
the stable tree include it. Did I miss something?
Thanks,
Kevin
