Hi,
While reconciling the lttng-modules writeback instrumentation with its counterpart
within the upstream Linux kernel, I notice that the following commit introduced in
5.6 is present in stable branches 5.4 and 5.5, but is missing from LTS stable branches
for 4.4, 4.9, 4.14, 4.19:
commit 68f23b89067fdf187763e75a56087550624fdbee
("memcg: fix a crash in wb_workfn when a device disappears")
Considering that this fix was CC'd to the stable mailing list, is there any
reason why it has not been integrated into those LTS branches ?
Thanks,
Mathieu
