That's a fallout on my end. Should have said: This is for 4.19 specifically to be queued.
Background: in https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20201014135627.GA3698844@kroah.com/ 168200b6d6ea0cb5765943ec5da5b8149701f36a was queued up for v4.19.y but the prerequeisite commit was not included and so resulted in build failures with gcc 8.3.0.
The commit was later on reverted but in this thread it was asked to actually make it possible to compile the file as well with more recent gcc versions.
Those two patches to be applied in 4.19.y only pick up a backport of the rerequisite commit 95c6fe970a0160cb770c5dce9f80311b42d030c0 (PATCH
- followed up by the cherry-pick of
168200b6d6ea0cb5765943ec5da5b8149701f36a again.
Since the patch 01 is minor tweaked due to context difference, I manually compared it with original patch and looks good to me.
Thank you for the back porting,
Welcome, given I'm unfamiliar with the codebasis for perf the explicit acknowledgement nothing looks wrong was appreciated.
Regards, Salvatore
