Yeah, they are changes that were originally targeting the v5.9 merge
window (and thus were in -next during July/August) but I didn't get
the chance to send a pull request for them. Since I didn't touch my
-next branch since then they are also in 'next-20201013' and
'next-20201015'.

I just rebased to v5.9 to make sure the 1-line changes that touch
kernel/capability.c, kernel/groups.c and kernel/sys.c still applied
cleanly without conflicts. Should I have rebased onto one of the -rc's
for v5.9 instead?
