We have several long-term and extended stable kernels, and it's possible that a bug fix is in some stable versions but is missing in some other versions, so I've written a script to find out those fixes. Take 3.4.xx and 3.2.xx for example. If a bug fix was merged into upstream kernel after 3.4, and then it was backported to 3.2.xx, then it probably needs to be backported to 3.4.xx. The result is, there're ~430 bug fixes in 3.2.xx that probably need to be backported to 3.4.xx. Given there're about 4500 commits in 3.2.xx, that is ~10%, which is quite a big number for stable kernels. We (our team in Huawei) are going to go through the whole list to filter out fixes that're applicable for 3.4.xx. I've attached the lists for 3.4 and 3.10. If a commit ID appears more than once in changelogs, it's possible that's because the commit was reverted later, so I tagged this kind of commits in the lists.
