[PATCH 3.2 004/131] stable_kernel_rules: Add pointer to netdev-FAQ for network patches

[Ben Hutchings]

3.2.63-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dave Chiluk <chiluk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit b76fc285337b6b256e9ba20a40cfd043f70c27af upstream.

Stable_kernel_rules should point submitters of network stable patches to the
netdev_FAQ.txt as requests for stable network patches should go to netdev
first.
