Please add 21035965f60b ("bitmap: fix memset optimization on big-endian systems") to the stable tree
Just wanted to make sure this doesn't get missed because I misspelled the stable email address in the patch. It applies to v4.13+.

The "stable@kernel.org" address for a stable cc is actually better than stable@vger" imho, because afaik it still matches Greg's automation (that also picks up on "Fixes:" tags), and it does *not* cause extra email flurries when people use git-send-email scripts.
iirc, we had some vendor leak a security bug early because they actually just cc'd everybody - including the stable list - on the not-yet-publicly-committed change.
Greg - if your automation has changed, and you actually really want the "vger", let me know. Because I tend to just use "stable@kernel.org"

Either is fine, my scripts pick up both variants.
