7c887efda1 is the commit backported to linux-6.1.y. Of course it will apply
there.

What I mean is that the upstream commit for 7c887efda1 is 8151a6c13111b465dbabe07c19f572f7cbd16fef.

And cherry-picking 8151a6c13111b465dbabe07c19f572f7cbd16fef to linux-6.1.y
on top of 282f0a482ee6 will not result in duplicating the change, at least
with my git configuration.

I just don't understand how a duplicating if-statement could be produced in
result of those cherry-pick'ings and how the content of 7c887efda1 was
generated.

$ git checkout 282f0a482ee6

You are currently cherry-picking commit 8151a6c13111.
  (all conflicts fixed: run "git cherry-pick --continue")
  (use "git cherry-pick --skip" to skip this patch)
  (use "git cherry-pick --abort" to cancel the cherry-pick operation)
The previous cherry-pick is now empty, possibly due to conflict resolution.
If you wish to commit it anyway, use:

    git commit --allow-empty

Otherwise, please use 'git cherry-pick --skip'
