Respected Sir/s/Ma'am/s I want to request that patch https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230627062442.54008-1-mika.westerberg@linux.int... be accepted in to the stable 6.1 branch, it is already present in the current branch, and i request for it to be backported. This fixes some Intel CPUs (according to other users claims, ranging back to 6th gen for some) not going to deeper c states with kernels 5.16+, and was fixed by this patch in 6.4.4+, since many institutions, and distributions use 6.1, it would be great if this is included (from what i understand from requirements (https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html) i guess it fits all)
What is the git commit id of this change in Linus's tree?
thanks,
