It's already in the latest stable -rc releases, do you not see it there?
I haven't checked the rc releases, just the latest stable versions. Now I also see Sasha Levin's submissions on the stable mailing list archive. All good. Sorry for the noise.
Also note that there is a bug in this commit, so it was dropped from the stable queues until the fix for this hits Linus's tree.
