I agree.

BTW, how much coverage does -stable get from Fengguang's 0day robot? I 
think that as most of the stable tress don't really use the git workflow, 
the trees are being pushed out to git.kernel.org only shortly before 
actual release, so the 0day bot doesn't have enough time to catch up; but 
I have to admit I don't really know how exactly the timing and flow of 
patches works here.

Thanks,
