In 5.4 you have:

9956 O   Greg Kroah ââ>[PATCH 5.4 082/147] netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: Introduce and use nft
9957     Greg Kroah ââ>[PATCH 5.4 083/147] netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: Add missing expired c

In 4.19 you have:

10373 r   Greg Kroah ââ>[PATCH 4.19 41/80] netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: Introduce and use nft
10376 O   Greg Kroah ââ>[PATCH 4.19 42/80] IB/mlx4: Test return value of calls to ib_get_ca

I believe 41/80 can be dropped from 4.19 series, as it is just a
preparation for 083/147... which is not queued for 4.19.
