Curious: Why was this (and its subsequent fixes) backported to v5.10.y ? It is quite beyond a bug fix. Also, unless I am really missing something, the series (or at least this patch) was not applied to v5.15.y, so we now have functionality in v5.10.y which is not in v5.15.y.
See the commit text, it was a dependency of a later fix and documented as such.
Having it in 5.10 and not 5.15 is a bit odd, I agree, so patches are gladly accepted :)
thanks,
