Why the hell are you even wondering?

You didn't send the patch to me. It's that damn simple. Harvey did.

I do *not* troll the internet for random patches to apply. But I do apply 
random patches that fix build errors etc, WHEN THEY ARE SENT TO ME.

That said, I'm not asking people to send patches directly to me when there 
is a maintainer that can handle it, but obviously when people do send 
obvious patches that I feel comfy applying and make sense to apply, I'll 
do so.

In other words, don't send cleanup patches to me when there is a 
maintainer, but if there is a build fix or an oops/security fix that you 
want to go into my tree asap, feel free to short-circuit maintainership.

This should be neither new nor surprising to anybody.

			Linus
