David sends me the networking patches for the stable tree, and if he
thinks these are applicable, then I'll take them.

DaveM, please?  What do you want me to do, submit this req/patches somehow?

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/bundle/davem/stable/?state=*)

Asking Greg to do it directly is a complete waste of time. :-)
