I've applied the revert and made a PR out of it:

https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/1a6657ef8475862e4fc282efe832fa86.=%3FUTF-8%3Fq%3FIlpo=20J=C3=A4rvinen%3F=%20%3Cilpo.jarvinen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/#u


I found it a bit disappointing to hear from Greg that patches can no 
longer be dropped from stable-queue (it certainly used to be possible 
earlier) but things are to be handled indirectly through commits in Linus' 
tree.

I'll probably just /dev/null those stable queue notification emails then 
if they no longer serve any other purpose than spamming my inbox (which is 
largely thanks to me bothering to review other people patches :-/)...
