Re: [PATCH] firewire: cdev: fix potential leak of kernel stack due to uninitialized value

Hi Iwai-san,

I have a moderate request to you for the patch which fixes an issue
included in v5.19-rc1. If it's applicable and I can borrow your help
again, I'd like you to send the patch to mainline via your tree.

If possible, it's preferable to apply additional three patches I
respined[1], but it could be optional since not so critical.
