Yes, _after_ it has landed in Linus' tree.
I didn't add a Fixes tag, as the fix needs changes to apply to any pre-4.13
kernel.

Most probably it will be picked up by stable automatically, as it has the
magic word "Fix" in the one-line summary.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
