Nope, planning ahead:
$ ~/linux/stable/commit_tree/id_found_in 7fae4c24a2b8
5.16-rc1 queue-4.4 queue-4.9 queue-4.14 queue-4.19 queue-5.4 queue-5.10 queue-5.14 queue-5.15
That commit is in the current -rc releases right now.
The problem with this commit is that the cc_platform_has() function is
not present. I thought about backporting it as well, but that seemed
odd as I do not think that feature is in the 5.15 and older kernels,
right?
Or is it ok to take the cc_platform_has() function?
thanks,
