Anything received after that time might be too late.
The whole patch series can be found in one patch at:

ARM and ARM64 builds worked fine and passed tests, however BMIPS_GENERIC
fails to build with:
arch/mips/kernel/smp.c: In function 'start_secondary':
arch/mips/kernel/smp.c:340:2: error: implicit declaration of function
'rcutree_report_cpu_starting'; did you mean 'rcu_cpu_starting'?
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
rcutree_report_cpu_starting(cpu);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
rcu_cpu_starting
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
host-make[5]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:250: arch/mips/kernel/smp.o]
Error 1
host-make[4]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:500: arch/mips/kernel] Error 2
host-make[3]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:500: arch/mips] Error 2
host-make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
which is caused by 7c20a4cc189eff36d5aeb586008a540d8024fbff ("mips/smp:
Call rcutree_report_cpu_starting() earlier").
It looks like rcutree_report_cpu_starting() has been introduced
448e9f34d91d1a4799fdb06a93c2c24b34b6fd9d ("rcu: Standardize explicit
CPU-hotplug calls") which is in v6.7.
For MIPS, it would like an adequate fix would be to
's/rcutree_report_cpu_starting/rcu_cpu_starting/' for the 6.1 and 6.6
branches.
Stefan, do you agree?
