Hi peter:
Do you have any plans to backport this patch[1] to the stable branch of the
lower version, such as 4.19.y ?
Why? That is a new feature for 6.2 why would it be needed to fix
anything in really old kernels?
Hi Greg:
This patch fix CVE-2023-0597[1], this CVE report a flaw possibility of
memory leak. And this is important for some products using this stable
version.

When I try to backport this patch to 5.10.y, I met some KASAN[2] and
KASLR[3] related issues. Although they were finally solved, there were still
some detours in the process.
Send your series of backports to the list for review please if they
match the stable kernel rules.
OK.
But why can't you just use the 6.2 kernel instead of something obsolete
like 4.19?
thanks,
