It appears that the final version of the patch that was merged to Linus's tree [1] does not include the "Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org" tag. If I understand correctly, this means that the patch will not be automatically included in the -stable tree without further action. Is there a specific reason not to apply this patch to 5.0.x, or did the tag just get lost in the merge process?
Good catch; I see that Jarkko had the same comment on v3 but v4 ended up being without the -stable tag without any explanation. I've queued this for 5.0, it doesn't seem relevant for older branches.
Thank you! Correct, the regression only affects 5.0.
