Hi Greg, I have checked with Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst but not found out what is failing. Basically this belongs to a series to fix a bug 81eef6ca9201 ("mmc: omap_hsmmc: Use dma_request_chan() for requesting DMA channel") that exists since v4.7 and has been hidden by patches which came into the kernel over the time.
