Hello, I don't think we need this because, even if the code is not compiled, it has been fixed earlier in scarthgap: See 5c086db3f44 (u-boot: fix CVE-2024-42040, 2025-10-29) Same reasonning apply to other patches in this series. Can you check if we really need those? Thanks! -- Yoann Congal Smile ECS
