Don't send me anything, saying it needs to get into the -rc merge
window, that you don't actually want to see merged.  Otherwise, how long
am I supposed to know to wait?  That's just looney.

At this point in the release cycle, I would prefer to wait.

But, after they go into Linus's tree for the 3.4-rc1 merge, send the git
commit ids of the patches to stable@vger.kernel.org and they can get
merged to the 3.3.y tree to make things better there.
