Hi Lorenzo,

You're right ; -) If this series gets a v2, I'll be sure to add a
cover letter. I just wasn't sure what I would include in it that
wasn't covered in the commit messages themselves, but I think I could
offer some more explanation of how this was discovered and why there's
no CC: stable in the patches.

Thanks! Have a great day Lorenzo,
Joshua
