Hi AceLan,

As Stefan mentioned, per our new SRU policy [1], it's preferred if this
goes into upstream stable first (stable at kernel.org).  We'll then get
this patch automatically the next time we rebase with upstream stable.
I believe there is going to be a 2.6.31.8 release so there should be
enough time to get this in.

Thanks,
Leann
