Dave queues up and sends me the stable backports for networking code, as the document states. If there is a special series needed for 4.19, I'm sure he would be glad to take them. Or, I can take them directly, after I have the 5.0 series queued up, if I get an ack from him. But to seemingly circumvent the normal process, isn't ok, I need to know that at least you tried :) thanks, greg k-h
