 Procedure for submitting patches to the -stable tree:

    stable@kernel.org.
- - The sender will receive an ack when the patch has been accepted into
-   the queue, or a nak if the patch is rejected.  This response might

- - If accepted, the patch will be added to the -stable queue, for review

 Review cycle:

-   affected area of the patch (unless the submitter is the maintainer of
-   the area) and CC: to the linux-kernel mailing list.
- - The review committee has 48 hours in which to ack or nak the patch.

  - If the patch is rejected by a member of the committee, or linux-kernel
-   members object to the patch, bringing up issues that the maintainers

-   queue.
- - At the end of the review cycle, the acked patches will be added to
-   the latest -stable release, and a new -stable release will happen.
