Comment 40 for bug 1196730

Sorry, Linus I see you attached a patch, so no need to test the upstream kernel.

Can you provide some information on the status of the patch with regards to getting it merged upstream? Has it been sent upstream, what sort of feedback has it received, is it getting applied to a subsystem maintainer's tree, etc?

To submit your patch, send your patch with the detailed description/changelog and your Signoff (ending with Signed-off-by: your name <email>), to the emails listed from ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl drivers/SUBSYSTEM-DETAILS (the get_maintainer.pl is from the kernel sources). Once you have sent the patch upstream and it's accepted, please drop a note here so that we can cherry-pick/include the patch into Ubuntu kernel.
