Jia He (1): vhost: vsock: kick send_pkt worker once device is started
Should this fix also be CC-ed to stable? Sorry I forgot to cc it to stable.

Go ahead, though recently just including Fixes seems to be enough.
You are getting lucky if you only apply a "Fixes:" tag, as that is much lower down our list of things to look at. We are forced to do that because of subsystems and maintainers that do not use the cc: stable tag, as has been documented for the patch 15+ years :(
So please be explicit if you know you want it merged to the stable trees, otherwise it is not a guarantee at all if you only use "fixes:".
thanks,
