This is a common practice in the security industry, called "responsible disclosure." Following the kernel security bugs policy [1], we reported it to the kernel security contacts few days before making the issue public. Few days after issue became public, we published a clear report to all of the relevant mailing lists.
Isn't the point of responsible disclosure to delay disclosure until a fix is in place? What's the point of sending a notification to the kernel security team if you're going to disclose publicly before the upstream kernel is fixed? - R.
