The series is analogous to the previous accepted series sent for 5.4, though this series is for 4.19.y: https://lore.kernel.org/stable/CAKwvOd=Ko_UHWF-bYotqjPVw=chW_KMUFuBp_o8uOg0w...
I don't plan to backport the series any further than 4.19.
Yeah, I wouldn't worry about anything older than 4.19.y at the moment for stuff like this.
All look good, now queued up, thanks!
