Lower down the volume then? Raise the bar for what gets backported? Stable kernel releases got unnecessarily big [1] (Jiří is in Cc). Those 40 changes a day cannot get a proper review. Each stable release tries to mimic -rc except -rc is in consistent state while "stable" is just a bunch of changes picked here and there.
