I am not well familiar with applying patches to previous stable kernels.
My understanding is, given that stable version mentioned here is 4.2, someone or automated software will attempt to apply this patches on 4.2 and higher kernel.
If that is true, than cherry pick will fail, because function being called in the patch doesn't exist until kernel 4.11.
