RE: [PATCH 0/3] module stable fixes.

[åæéå / HIRAMATUïMASAMI]

Hi Rusty,

I'm OK for this series of patches, and it seems that the CC list on your mail
(on patch mails) is broken.

  CC: Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Weilong Chen
	<chenweilong@xxxxxxxxxx>, Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@xxxxxxxxxxx>,

<---<
	<stable@xxxxxxxxxx>

Maybe just an off-topic.

Thanks!
