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

To avoid any confusion, I meant build testing above ^^.

Yes, or you can just send me a list of git ids, no need for the patch itself if you have not changed it.

Yes, please send them too. If you want to put them in the same series or not is up to you.
