Thanks!
I have some questions about this one:

Cc: <[email protected]> # 3.3.x: a1f84a3: sched: Check for idle
Cc: <[email protected]> # 3.3.x: 1b9508f: sched: Rate-limit newidle
Cc: <[email protected]> # 3.3.x: fd21073: sched: Fix affinity logic
Cc: <[email protected]> # 3.3.x
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>

1. what does the kernel version mean? can I omit it?
2. so when I rebase to add the tag, this changes commit IDs for
   following tags in the same tree, breaking their tags
   in the process. Pretty annoying. Any idea how to do it better?

Thanks!
