Subject: WTF: patch "[PATCH] riscv: Remove duplicated GET_RM" was seriously submitted to be applied to the 6.11-stable tree?
Date: Tue, 05 Nov 2024 17:29:42 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2024110542-irregular-oppressor-7d11@gregkh> (raw)

The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 6.11-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
