No, please don't cc stable. Also don't cc stable without a Fixes tag.

This isn't backportable given you now need to backport to 5.10, 5.15, 6.1, 6.6,
6.12, 6.17.

I'm not sure how Andrew deals with a mix of Cc: stable and not-cc-stable patches
in a series, think he generally doesn't like, but I'm not sure how exactly we
are supposed to express order here otherwise. Andrew?

Can't we just have this hunk here as part of patch #2?

Backporting should be rather simple, just drop the hunk on kernels where it doesn't apply. Sure, a bit of manual work, but better than making our life more complicated here.

But maybe I am missing something.
