• Request to cherry picking a patch to fix bug #989705 for kernels 5.10.y

    From Computer Enthusiastic@21:1/5 to All on Fri Jan 27 21:10:01 2023
    Hello,

    The bug #989705 [1] is currently closed. It was solved for kernels
    version 5.15+ using the patch [2] from upstream.

    This patch [2] applies to kernel version 5.10.y, too. I used it with a
    custom built kernel since it was published .

    The author of the patch acknowledged that the patch applies to kernel
    version 5.10.y asking me to send it out to the stable mailing list. I
    did it, but I did not receive an answer. I tried to peek upstream, but
    again no answer.

    Therefore, I'm sending this post to ask the debian-kernel mailing list
    if it is possibile to cherry pick the patch [1] to make it land in the
    next release of Debian Kernel 5.10.y.

    Let me know if I can help in any way. I cannot update bug #989705
    because it is currently closed.

    Thanks in advance for your attention.
