Subject: WTF: patch "[PATCH] scsi: qla2xxx: Update manufacturer details" was seriously submitted to be applied to the 5.19-stable tree?
Date: Sat, 13 Aug 2022 15:27:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <16603972763674@kroah.com> (raw)
The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 5.19-stable tree.
I fail to see how this patch meets the stable kernel rules as found at
Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst.
I could be totally wrong, and if so, please respond to
<stable@vger.kernel.org> and let me know why this patch should be
applied. Otherwise, it is now dropped from my patch queues, never to be
seen again.
thanks,
greg k-h
