For the NFSD and exportfs hunks:

"lockd: introduce safe async lock op" is in v6.10. Does this
series need to be backported to v6.10.y ? Should the series
have "Fixes: 2dd10de8e6bc ("lockd: introduce safe async lock
op")" ?

Thanks Chuck! Probably yes, if we want notifications fixed up there.  It
should be sufficient to add this to the signoff area for at least the first
three (and fourth for cleanup):

Cc: <redacted> # 6.10.x

2dd10de8e6bc landed in v6.7.

I suppose that since v6.10.y is likely to be closed by
the time this series is applied upstream, this tag might
be confusing.

Thus Fixes: 2dd10de8e6bc and a plain Cc: stable should
work best. Then whichever stable kernel is open when your
fixes are merged upstream will automatically get fixed.

None of the current LTS kernels have 2dd10de8e6bc so they
aren't relevant at this point.
