No, NAK to this one going to stable.

Permanent NAK to *any* mm.git patch going to stable unless that patch's changelog has an explicit cc:stable.

The commit: 058313515d5a ("mm: shmem: fix potential data corruption during shmem swapin") DID have an explicit cc: stable, and Sasha was just fixing it up as the number of FAILED mm stable patches are pretty high.

I have dropped both of these from both queues now, thanks.
