As I mentioned earlier, I should have added a Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 2.6.39 but left it out as I mistakingly thought the net recommendations to do so applied also to wireless. Thanks, Johan

But is 2.6.39 really correct? Shouldn't it be 2.6.39+ so that it means all versions since 2.6.39?

I notice now that adding a plus sign is more common, but it's still a 1:2 ratio judging from quick grep, while the stable-kernel-rules.rst actually uses a minus sign... Thanks, Johan

Heh, quite confusing :) I added the plus sign already to the patch in my pending branch so unless you object I'll keep it.
