e70af8d040d2 has a Fixes tag. Not sure why it's not automatically
backported.
Because "Fixes:" is not the flag that we are sure to trigger off of.
Please read:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html
for how to do this properly.
Thanks, I just read this again to refresh my memory :-)
I remember Sasha has an AI algorithm to pick up patches into the stable
tree and a "Fixes" tag should be a strong indicator.
I tired to manually cherry-pick e70af8d040d2 to 5.15.y and got some
merge conflicts. Probably that's why Sasha's script didn't automatically
do the backport. @Carl, @Jeffrey, may I know if you have some cycles to
help backport e70af8d040d2?
We might have some cycles this week.
