The 8053871d0f7f one did not get backported to 3.18. I don't remember
what triggered
this one for the backport list, but it is quite possible that there
was something
else that needed 878a84d5a8a1 too. I also don't know where the
2427963027 number comes from, I see it as
878a84d5a8a18a4ab241d40cebb791d6aedf5605
upstream.
