Sasha, will this patch be applied for 4.19?
The same question for the 5.4 backport [*]. It looks like both of them are missed for unknown reasons.
[*] https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20211006111250.264294-1-sashal@kernel.org
This was from 2021, quite a while ago.
Can you please send them in backported form if you feel they should be applied?
thanks,
