I have asked stable maintainers upstream, and it got queued for the 6.12.y stable series: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git/commit/?id=7294cf6ff42482531f62f9b2a74d9c7ee00bbb59 I'm not reassigning the bug to src:linux as I think the cifs-utils might need to handle such situation more gracefully? I.e. usually we cannot across packages in distribution guarantee such a lockstep update. cifs-uitls maintainers, might that be something which can be handled on both sides? At least for upstream 6.12.y should look good now per se. Regards, Salvatore
