So what happens when you receive the FAILED message?

And why are you interested to know how far back a fix can be backported?

Personally, I'm _very_ interested in a _small_ number of patches, but
none of which usually emanate from subsystems I maintain.

I'm interested because they only get backported to kernels that are
maintained for some reason. And since these are in my subsystem, I do like
to know that my code works for all supported kernel releases. ;-)
