Subject[PATCH 3.10 01/55] stable_kernel_rules: Add pointer to netdev-FAQ for network patches
Date
3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dave Chiluk <chiluk@canonical.com>

commit b76fc285337b6b256e9ba20a40cfd043f70c27af upstream.

Stable_kernel_rules should point submitters of network stable patches to the
netdev_FAQ.txt as requests for stable network patches should go to netdev
first.
