I understand that, but I intentionally proposed the rule a little bit more 
"exact", because meaning of "latest stable" might potentially be different 
at the time of the patch being commited to subsystem tree, and at the time 
of the commit actually appearing in Linus' tree (which is the point at 
which -stable notices).

Probably a slight corner case, but why not make it more specific by 
default.

Thanks,
