This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

Thanks for sending your patch upstream, so it gets included in the mainline kernel. Do you intend to also submit your patch to the Ubuntu kernel team mailing list for inclusion in Raring or other stable releases? If not, it can be cherry-picked from mainline when it lands there.

Joseph, Andy suggested to also send it to kernel-team@, so I did that now (it needs moderation). It's not a blocker if it doesn't land in raring, as we could apply a workaround in NM. But if it's easy to fit in and doesn't break freeze rules, I of course wouldn't mind getting it into raring.

I just got Leann's "Applied" email. Thanks!
