Note, you don't actually need to Cc stable@vger.kernel.org when sending the patch. If/when the patch is merged to Linus' tree, the stable tree maintainers, or more accurately their scripts, will automatically pick up the patch and apply it to the relevant stable trees.
You'll probably be getting the following letter from Greg KH any time now :-)
Nope, this was fine, I don't mind seeing the patch before it hits Linus's tree (or any tree) at all. It lets me know what to look out for, nothing was done incorrectly here at all from what I can tell.
thanks,
