Stable would be nice, but only to v6.1. I think I don't care
about older kernels.
So what about if I resend this one here, based on top of the reformat
patch, with a:
Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # 6.1.x
line in there, and then reply to the email that the automatic backport
failed, with a tailored patch for v6.1?
Alternatively I can send an explicit stable backport email once this one
is merged.

Cheers,
Andre
