Not to nitpick, but if you mean torvalds/linux.git, then lots of patches in backport-5.10 are breaking this rule. For instance, all the recent mediatek offload work is still only in netdev/net-next.git, to be (hopefully) merged into torvalds/linux.git when the next merge window opens. Also, this particular fix has been submitted and will likely also be in net-next.git imminently: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20210417072905.207032-1-dqf...@gmail.com/.
In addition to that, I would like to submit another fix to OpenWrt that is already in net-next.git, but now I'm confused - do I put it in pending-5.10 or backports-5.10? Please advise.
