This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
x86/sev: Guard sev_evict_cache() with CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPTto the 6.12-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git%3Ba=su...
The filename of the patch is: x86-sev-guard-sev_evict_cache-with-config_amd_mem_encrypt.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.12 subdirectory.
If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let stable@vger.kernel.org know about it.
Maybe I didn't use the tag correctly, but I put 6.16.x on the stable tag to indicate that the patch only applied to 6.16 and above. Before 6.16, there isn't a stub version of the function, so all off those releases are fine.
So this patch doesn't need to be part of the 6.12 stable tree.
Thanks for letting me know, I've now dropped this. I was triggering off of the "Fixes:" tag, which shows it was needed back to the 6.1.y tree.
thanks,
