A Fixes: tag will not guarantee it will make it into a stable release.
It might, a month or so later, if we get bored.  You should always use a
 Cc: stable@ tag instead, as that is the documented way to ensure that
the patch makes it into a stable release.

Once this hits Linus's tree, send me the SHA1 and I will be glad to
queue it up.
