[1] https://github.com/lede-project/source. These patches are mostly
cherry-picked from target/linux/*/patches-4.9 directories. Though some
are also put in package/kernel/*/patches/ directory.
Hi Greg, all,
Just a status: so I went through about 200+ patches since the last
patch list I sent; out of which 16 have been sent out to stable just
now.
8 listed below might be interesting but either don't apply easily or
need more understanding - if anyone finds them worthy for more time, I
can spend some, otherwise will drop them from my list
hv_netvsc: Add query for initial physical link speed
hv_netvsc: Add handler for physical link speed change
hv_netvsc: Implement batching of receive completions
netvsc: fix checksum on UDP IPV6
netvsc: Remove mistaken udp.h inclusion.
mm, oom: protect !costly allocations some more
mm: consider compaction feedback also for costly allocation
kvm: x86: correctly reset dest_map->vector when restoring LAPIC state
Best,
Sumit.

Hi Greg,
I'm in the middle of cherry-picking and testing a handful of lede
https://lede-project.org stable patches as likely 4.9.y candidates. I
have few questions before I send them your way following Sasha's email
format.
1. If I use standard "git cherry-pick -x $commitID" to append original
git commit IDs as "(cherry picked from commit $commitID)" line in the
original commit message, will that work for you?
2. While verifying that these lede patches are indeed upstreamed
alrready, I ran into few more similar upstream fixes which though are
not part of lede distro but reasonable enough to go into stable-4.9.
Should I send them as well? May be as part of different set and not as
lede's patches?
Regards,
Amit Pundir
