    http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary

The filename of the patch is:
     wifi-iwlegacy-4965-fix-potential-off-by-one-overflow.patch
and it can be found in the queue-5.19 subdirectory.

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree,
please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it.

Sorry for the late comment, but I haven't been cc-ed before
and I see this patch for the first time.

[...]

I don't think this is good solution, because we skip filling various
fields of link quality command and I'm not sure if such command
would be properly handled by firmware.  I think proper solution
would be just check against LINK_QUAL_MAX_RETRY_NUM - 1 in inner loop.

This patch is already upstream, and being cherry-picked into stable.
If there's anything to fix here then a new patch should be sent
upstream...
