Hi Greg, I have checked with Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst but not found out what is failing.
Basically this belongs to a series to fix a bug
81eef6ca9201 ("mmc: omap_hsmmc: Use dma_request_chan() for requesting DMA channel")
that exists since v4.7 and has been hidden by patches which came into the kernel over the time.
I do not understand at all.
What does tagging all of these random wifi driver commits with cc: stable have to do with an old mmc commit from 4.7-rc1?
Here is also the cover letter for the series when they were originally submitted to fix linux-next:
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/cover/1142016/
Unfortunately that gets lost by the transition to stable.
