Just curious, why 6.1.y in particular? If you don't think it needs to go to any kernels older than 5.15.y, that would be fine. And as for 6.1.y, look at the front page of www.kernel.org, it shows the active kernel versions. We can't apply a change to an older kernel tree only because if you upgrade to a newer one (i.e. from 5.15.y to 6.1.y), you would have a regression which we don't ever want. thanks, greg k-h
