---------------------------------
Note: This is a big stable release. Mostly my fault for being on the
road last week, combined with an unusually large number of patches being
tagged for the stable tree. Anyway, I've caught up with all pending
patches before 3.17-rc7, so if you have marked something for the stable
tree that I have not applied, or emailed the stable@xxxxx list asking
for a patch, that is not here, please let me know.
---------------------------------
This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 3.16.4 release.
There are 357 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response
to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please
let me know.
Responses should be made by Sun Oct 5 21:28:42 UTC 2014.
Anything received after that time might be too late.
