I am sorry, I really do not understand here.

You list these commits in a specific order, yet the patches you send are
in a different order.

And they don't apply to 5.10 or older.

Can you resend proper patch series, for each stable branch that you want
these applied to, so that I can correctly queue them up?

thanks,
