For a separate fix that would go to stable it would have to be independent on the subpage series which sounds like a lot of work, and we're out of time for 5.12. If the fix really needs to land in old stable trees then it's possible to extract that from this patch and send as a standalone patch that does not exactly match the upstream one. As an exception it works, we've done that in the past.
