As I pointed out in that issue, I don't think that series helps us with
this issue but I will try to test shortly (the patches did not apply

Those patches are already released in stable, they were basically
released at the same time as they were merged into mainline:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/?h=linux-6.4.y
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/?h=linux-6.1.y
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/?h=linux-5.15.y
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/?h=linux-5.10.y

Cheers,
Nathan
