Sure, I can do this. Wrt to trivial patches, will these patches that go into
rusty's patch bot go into Linus's tree or into the -mm tree?
The reason I ask that is because a trivial patch may fix an oops if there's an
off-by-one problem and typically I'd submit that to the trivial patch bot.
No offense intended, but Rusty's trivial bot is often too slow
for critical patches, so trivial-but-critical would be better off
going to thru the x.y tree IMO.
That's why I was wondering about why this tree doesn't except trivial changes.
It will if they fix real problems that people are experiencing.
The trivil bot and/or kernel-janitors paths for patches are better
used for slow/non-critical patches, not patches that need quick
attention and merging.
Thanks,
Shawn.

Sounds great, I can be a QA resource for what machines I have.
How do people get involved in QAing these releases?
Get the last release and test it out. If you have problems, and have
simple/obvious patches, send them on.
