Same for all of these in the series... Given the fact that these are all bug fixes I assumed that these are also relevant for backporting. Maybe only in the more recent stable releases if there are issues with the merges. I do not mind removing the stable kernel reference and keep these changes only for mainline. So please let me know your preference. Should I resubmit the patches without stable reference? Best regards, Daniel Starke
