[PATCH v2 0/5] docs: stable-kernel-rules: fine-tuning and 'no stable backport' tag

From: Thorsten Leemhuis
Date: Mon Apr 29 2024 - 03:19:47 EST


After a recent discussion regarding "do we need a 'nobackport' tag" I
set out to create one change for stable-kernel-rules.rst. This is now
the last patch in the series, which links to that discussion with
all the details; the other stuff is fine-tuning that happened along the
way.

Ciao, Thorsten
---
v1->v2:
* Add reviewed-by tag from Greg to the first patch.
* Change the backport example in 2 as suggested by Greg.
* Improve description of patch 3 while also making the change remove a
level of indenting.
* Add patch explaining stable@xxxxxxxxxx (w/o @vger.)
* Move the patch adding a 'make AUTOSEL et. al. ignore a change' flag to
the end of the series and use stable+noautosel@xxxxxxxxxx as
suggested my Konstantin and ACKed by Greg.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1712812895.git.linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/
