Hi Yang,

commit 24d7275ce2791829953ed4e72f68277ceb2571c6
Author: Yang Shi <shy828301@xxxxxxxxx>

    fs/proc: task_mmu.c: don't read mapcount for migration entry

is backported to 5.10 stable but not to 5.4 or earlier stable trees.  The 
commit advertises to fix a commit from 4.5.

Do we need stable backports for earlier trees or are they not affected?

Thanks!
