This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

alpha: make stack 16-byte aligned (most cases)

Hi Greg, thanks for applying this!

...

Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from ink@unseen.parts are

queue-6.6/alpha-make-stack-16-byte-aligned-most-cases.patch queue-6.6/alpha-align-stack-for-page-fault-and-user-unaligned-trap-handlers.patch

The third one (commit 77b823fa619f97d alpha: replace hardcoded stack offsets with autogenerated ones) is also needed, but it won't apply as-is to 6.6 and older kernels.

Do you want me to provide the patches?

Please do!

thanks,

greg k-h
