I've queued them up, however it would be much easier if for commits that
don't require any modification to allow backporting you would just
provide the commit ids in Linus's tree rather than the patches
themselves.

I do see that you had to modify this one:


Sungjong Seo (1):
 exfat: flush dirty metadata in fsync


In which case, a header in the commit message indicating the upstream
commit id would be appriciated. Something like this:

[ Upstream commit 5267456e953fd8c5abd8e278b1cc6a9f9027ac0a ]

Thank you!
