I thought it was against the net next tree, given the number of patches that are currently being applied to the sh_eth driver.quoted

Fair enough, applied to net-next, thanks!quoted

It probably makes sense to queue this for the stable kernels as well.quoted
Sorry, that's not how this works.quoted
If it's good enough for -stable, meaning that users are activly hitting the problem and it's a serious bug, then it's good enough for 'net' and should have been submitted against 'net'.I thought that at this point only regression fixes are good for 'net'. Although, this can be considered a regression too -- since addition of runtime PM support back in 2009.
-stable has more stringent requirements for inclusion than 'net', therefore it is never valid for something to go -stable which is not in 'net'.
