I think so, the kernel process works, we just need to adapt it to rdma-core. Regarding the flagging procedure, we can do like Greg and Sasha do. Open email account (e.g. stable-Xl5UnYtxxKxKUA01WzcqbQ@public.gmane.org), connect it to /dev/null, so people won't get bounce emails while they sent patches to it, and once a week or two run script [1], which will check master branch and cherry-pick patches with Cc: stable@ in their commit messages.
