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

net: sch_ets: Add a new Qdisc

to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git%3Ba=su...

The filename of the patch is: net-sch_ets-add-a-new-qdisc.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory.

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let stable@vger.kernel.org know about it.

Not sure what the motivation is to include a pure added feature to a stable tree. But if you truly want the patch, then there were a couple follow up fixes over the years. At least the following look like patches to code that would be problematic in 5.4.y as well:

cd9b50adc6bb ("net/sched: ets: fix crash when flipping from 'strict' to 'quantum'") 454d3e1ae057 ("net/sched: sch_ets: properly init all active DRR list handles") de6d25924c2a ("net/sched: sch_ets: don't peek at classes beyond 'nbands'") c062f2a0b04d ("net/sched: sch_ets: don't remove idle classes from the round-robin list") d62b04fca434 ("net: sched: fix ets qdisc OOB Indexing") 1a6d0c00fa07 ("net_sched: ets: Fix double list add in class with netem as child qdisc")
