I don't think we should use stable tree as an excuse for not fixing
the bugs in mainline. Original patch is from Jul 6, thats 7 weeks ago.

Dave, Linus -- can you still take the patch?

Thanks,

Pavel, please do not bypass maintainers like this.

It's really rude, and if you do things like that instead of
trying to work properly with us, your relationship with
these maintainers will suffer in the long term.

Thank you.

Do you mean I'm being rude to Kalle, or rude to you?

In the part you snipped, Kalle asked me to do just that:

# I'm not planning to submit pull requests to 4.13 anymore. If you think
# this is so important that it needs to be applied in the last minute (I
# don't) you could always try to convince Dave to take it directly.

..and as I still believe patch should go in, that's what I did.

Best regards,
									Pavel

He said "to David", not "David and Linus".

Ok. If I knew you would be replying so quickly, I'd acted
differently. I did not want to be rude.

But I'd still like to get the patch in. Do you plan to send another
pull request to Linus, and can you take the patch, please?

Thanks,
								Pavel
