At the time there was still hope that there may be an rc8, and the patch
in question had been used by a large number of X13s users for several
weeks, which is a lot more testing than the average Qualcomm patch
receives, whether it's in linux-next or not.

And patch 5 depends on the earlier patches in the series so it belongs
in the series, which was also initially posted long before the merge
window.

I'm sure Bjorn A can handle this in general, even if he failed to notice
the CC stable tag or had other reasons for applying the fix for 6.10
instead of 6.9.
