Eric, from the 5-patch series, only this last patch is Cc'd for stable,
but it obviously does not work without all 4 previous patches. Do you
mean whole series should be applied to -stable?
I picked up patches 2-5 for 7.2 and 9.0.
You are correct that patch 5 in isolation won't work due to missing
pre-reqs, but also that 1 is fluff that doesn't need backporting; my
apologies for not more judiciously adding the cc to all 4 patches
worth the backport effort. I'm in the middle of efforts to backport
only 2-5 to various RHEL releases, so your choice to do the same for
7.2 and 9.0 matches what I'm doing downstream.
That's entirely okay, there's no reason to apologize, - I just wanted
to make sure I got it all correct, nothing more, - it's a purely working
moment.
Speaking of various RHEL etc releases, - maybe we should keep more stable
branches, sort of like I do with 7.2 which is used in Debian? Or is it
maybe a bad idea?
Thanks,
