Right, it may not strictly be one, but we're trying to bring in
dependencies as is without modifying the patch is it's far less error
prone, and keeps future backports easy, as long as backporting those
isn't riskier.

It should only be some context that have changed. Backporting a known
broken and non-trivial feature patch for that can't be right. It is
certainly riskier.

In this case, if I were to drop a872ab303d5d I'd also need to drop:

a872ab303d5d ("usb: dwc3: qcom: fix use-after-free on runtime-PM wakeup")
6498a96c8c9c ("usb: dwc3: qcom: fix runtime PM wakeup")

Having said the above, at the end it's your patches and your call, let
me know if you're okay with dropping a872ab303d5d, a872ab303d5d, and

You mentioned a872ab303d5d twice here.

6498a96c8c9c from all trees and I'll do that.

This one didn't have a CC stable tag so not sure why you're backporting
that one either.

Just pick

	a872ab303d5d ("usb: dwc3: qcom: fix use-after-free on runtime-PM wakeup")

which was the only patch I had marked for stable and fix up the trivial
context change (an unrelated function has been added after the new
helper in mainline).

Okay, this should be done. Please take a look at the queue to confirm.
