So here the patch clearly says it is for "this kernel cycle"
which I feel implies that it is NOT for any previous kernels
stable or not...

This read to me as if this patch plasters the issue for now, and a
proper fix will follow in the next cycle.

I'm sorry if I missed the "look at this thing that we will
apply to stable soon" mail, sadly there are just too many
of these for me to handle sometimes. (Maybe it means I
am making too many mistakes to begin with, mea culpa.)

Oh dear, this is another bot backported commit which I suspect is
lacking some context or other from all the other work that was done with
GPIO enables :(

This AI seems a bit confused :/
Maybe it is the prolific use of the word "fix" that triggers it?

Right, it's a combo of a few things: one of them is indeed the work
"fix", but few others are the Reported-by tags, the simplicity of the
commit, and so on.

I'll drop this patch, sorry about this.
