What stable tree(s) do you want these applied to?

And if at all possible, I'd really prefer to take the original patches,
additional things and all, for stable kernels, as 95%[1] of the time
that we take "different" ones, there are bugs.

It also makes things easier for us to take additional changes later on
for other commits in the same area.  So can we just take the originals
please?

thanks,

[1] Totally made up number, I think the true number is 100%, but maybe
    one or two patches have actually worked over the years.  Most
    relevant example of this is some crypto patches that were "made
    simpler for stable" last week but were completely broken.
