I'm not talking about deviating away from that process. Sometimes backporting a large chunk of changes cannot be done due the size or other things. So one way to address this proactively is to see if perhaps some compromises can be made for stable, while upstream carries the rest. I can't see a way to do this though... So at least as-is, for the rest of the patches in this series: Reviewed-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxx> Luis
