Hi

The attached patch has today been sent to the linux kernel mailing list. I'm 
currently building the current precise kernel + the patch to verify the 
functionallity.

I would like to have the patch included into the precise kernel. What is 
needed to get the patch in?

Once it has been merged into Linus' tree then we'll likely be able to 
either SRU it, or pick it up from stable updates.

Ok, so the general policy is to only include upstream patches ?

For the most part we like to stay close to upstream. It makes 
maintenance a lot easier.

If Greg likes your patch, then its likely to make the 3.4 merge window 
'cause it looks like a bug fix. Soon thereafter it'll bubble down via 
stable updates.
