I could apply the patch with no problems on those versions. I also could cherry-pick
the commit on the branch queue/5.4 from stable/linux-stable-rc.git without conflicts.
I can't reproduce the issue you seem to be facing when applying those patches. Would you
mind helping me finding what's wrong with the patch on those branches?
Thanks,
