It will likely be up to an interested party to submit it to the stable kernel. Upstream developers are generally just that, and don't have the bandwidth to curate patches for older -stable kernels. If you'd like to send it to stable yourself, the process is outlined in https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst -Eric -Eric -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-xfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
