Background information can be checked in cover letter of v2 RESEND POST as below: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211207030750.30824-1-bhe@redhat.com/T/#u (local)Please include all relevant info right here, in the [0/n]. For a number of reasons, one of which is that the text is more likely to be up to date as the patchset evolves. It's unusual that this patchset has two non-urgent patches and the final three patches are cc:stable. It makes one worry that patches 3-5 might have dependencies on 1-2. Also, I'd expect to merge the three -stable patches during 5.16-rcX which means I have to reorder things, redo changelogs, update links and blah blah. So can I ask that you redo all of this as two patch series? A 3-patch series which is targeted at -stable, followed by a separate two-patch series which is targeted at 5.17-rc1. Each series with its own fully prepared [0/n] cover.
Sure, will do. Sorry for the mess. Before the 3-patch series posting, I may need to continue discussing and making clear if the current patch 5/5 is a good fix, or whether we need change to take other solution. So I will take the first two patches out and post them.
