[RFQ] Rules for accepting patches into the linux-releases tree

[Greg KH]

Anything else anyone can think of?  Any objections to any of these?
I based them off of Linus's original list.

thanks,

Rules on what kind of patches are accepted, and what ones are not, into
the "linux-release" tree.

 - It can not bigger than 100 lines, with context.
 - It must fix only one thing.
 - It must fix a real bug that bothers people (not a, "This could be a
   problem..." type thing.)
 - It must fix a problem that causes a build error (but not for things
   marked CONFIG_BROKEN), an oops, a hang, or a real security issue.
 - No "theoretical race condition" issues, unless an explanation of how
   the race can be exploited.
 - It can not contain any "trivial" fixes in it (spelling changes,
   whitespace cleanups, etc.)
-
