You need to explain in the commit message that they are only applicable to
stable and why this is being fixed in a different way in the stable series.

Since this is just adding DMI quirks I expect the stable series maintainers to
be fine with this, but you do need to explain why things are done this way; and
this explanation needs to be in the commit message, so that other people will
know where the changes come from / why there is no upstream commit id
referenced.

If you want you can send an updated version of the patches directly to me first
and then I can check the commit message. At a minimum for the next version /
submission to stable@... please Cc me then I can give my Reviewed-by to the
patches.
