What stable tree(s) do you want to see these go into?

Commits were introduced in 5.12, so it should go to all stable trees << 5.12

Great, all now queued up.  Sad that qcom didn't want to do this
themselves :(

Thanks for the fixes; I see them in 4.14 and newer stable trees.

But I don't see them in 4.4 and 4.9, nor can I see reason why they
were not applied.

Can someone help?

Odd, I don't remember why I didn't even try to apply them to older
kernels.  I'll do that after this next round is released in a few days,
sorry about that.

Thank you! If there are problems, let me know and I'll try to help.

Now all queued up.
