You have a lot of information here, but it's hard to sift through it

in stable releases, so adding them again is odd :)
Yeah I guess some have been merged for say other than v4.9 and
are not in v4.9 because of various reasons.
Can you just send a series of patches that you think should be merged
based on these commits?
Yes that is a good idea, because if something is already there and/or
not mergeing etc, I will surely notice.
The other point of the mail is to get feedback from people on CC
whether they agree these are commits that would be good for stable,
so I guess I prepare a bunch of backports, wait a little and then
send a patch train for v4.9.x.

Linus,
Regarding:
PCI breakage on cns3xxx:
100-arm-cns3xxx-fix-writing-to-wrong-PCI-registers-after.patch
101-arm-cns3xxx-use-actual-size-reads-for-PCIe.patch
Upstream commits
65dbb423cf28232fed1732b779249d6164c5999b
"ARM: cns3xxx: Fix writing to wrong PCI config registers after alignment"
432dd7064aa1c030a488745917cfa4ebc6c8c060
"ARM: cns3xxx: Use actual size reads for PCIe"
Merged in v5.0-rc5
These 2 can be skipped.
It was agreed with Bjorn Helgaas to only submit ("100-arm-cns3xxx-fix-writing-to-wrong-PCI-registers-after.patch") to stable,
and it has already been merged there.
The 2nd one ("101-arm-cns3xxx-use-actual-size-reads-for-PCIe.patch") is considered to be a cleanup.
Regards,
Koen
