[Kamal Mostafa]

3.13.11.7 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dave Chiluk <chiluk at 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.
