Please note that we can not apply a commit to an older stable tree that
is NOT in newer ones as you would obviously have a regression when
moving to a newer kernel.
I am guessing that you are being tasked with backporting CVE fixes to
older stable kernels, which is great, but please work "down the release
list" by starting with the newest one, and then moving to the older
ones. Otherwise we just can't take these and you are causing a lot of
extra review/checking time on our side here to verify you are doing it
all correctly :(
thanks,
