Please do :)


Sure. I'm just not sure how to post it. It only shows up in this tip-bot
email and on gitweb. It's not in tip.git and not in Linus' upstream tree.

I've updated the patch at it will apply now to v5.0.6, v4.19.33, v4.14.110,
v4.9.167, v4.4.178  all with increasing offsets but nothing else.

You can either reply to this thread with the patch(es), or just send
them out and annotate one way or the other that they should go to their
appropriate stable trees.

v3.18.138 won't take it without more work. I'd be inclined to skip that one.

No problem there.
