I suppose Avi prefers the master->stable route so it can get 
autotested?

But some sort of flag in the commit, like "Stable:Y" would
help. Could setup a robot to monitor kvm-commits and maintain
kvm-updates/2.6.2current (the queue to Linus), with human intervention
when necessary.

Then autotest can run continuously on that.
