This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
iommu: Clean up open-coded ownership checks
to the 6.6-stable tree which can be found at:
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary
The filename of the patch is:
iommu-clean-up-open-coded-ownership-checks.patch
and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory.
If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree,
please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it.
Unless you're also going to backport the rest of the larger redesign which
makes this commit message true, I don't think this is appropriate.
It's needed because of:
Stable-dep-of: 229e6ee43d2a ("iommu/arm-smmu: Defer probe of clients after smmu device bound")
That commit.
Is this still not relevant?
It's not a functional dependency though, just context, and in this case
I think a manual resolution is a lot safer to reason about. Lemme just
remind myself how to write up a backport patch correctly, and I'll send
it out shortly...
Cheers,
Robin.
