Subject: [PATCH v1 3/4] docs: stable-kernel-rules: call mainline by its name and change example
Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2024 07:25:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ec5dff37a62681beb74f89f8fcde41b6618152f0.1712812895.git.linux@leemhuis.info> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1712812895.git.linux@leemhuis.info>

Fine-tuning:

* s/Linus' tree/Linux mainline/, as mainline is the term used elsewhere
  in the document.

* Provide a better example for the 'delayed backporting' case.
