[PATCH 3.4 01/45] stable_kernel_rules: Add pointer to netdev-FAQ for network patches

[Zefan Li]

From: Dave Chiluk <chiluk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

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

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

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.
