The patch below does not apply to the 3.18-stable tree.
If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm
tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit
id to <stable@vger.kernel.org>.

Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Rename `sigill_r6' to `sigill_r2r6' in
 `__compute_return_epc_for_insn'

Use the more accurate `sigill_r2r6' name for the label used in the case
of sending SIGILL in the absence of the instruction emulator for an
earlier ISA level instruction that has been removed as from the R6 ISA,
so that the `sigill_r6' name is freed for the situation where an R6
instruction is not supposed to be interpreted, because the executing
processor does not support the R6 ISA.

Sorry, no, this doesn't belong in 3.18, as you said in the patch itself,
sorry for the noise.

 One of the rejected patches does belong though, so how do I mark the 
backport up correctly for you with the original commit ID and any other 
information necessary for seamless processing?

Just send it and say "this is commit id XXXX and needs to go to tree
X.XX please" or something like that. The mailing list has tons of
examples of this happening every day.
