I'm confused. I've sent a version that applied cleanly to 5.10.49:

https://lore.kernel.org/stable/YOr4DMQITU8yzBNT@xxxxxxxxxx

and I've got an email that it was added to the stable tree and the email
with the patch for stable preview:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210715182623.942552790@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Was anything wrong with the patch?
