Hi,
OK, here they are. Two patches attached for every stable kernel, that gets rid of the remnants of the SCM related code:
5.4 5.10 and 5.15 (same patches) 6.1 6.6 6.7
Would appreciate if Fedor and Pavel could give them a once over, but I think they are all fine. It's just deleting the code...
Thank you, Jens!
FWIW, I think it's all good and it eliminates the reported problem obviously. Compiled and tested the repro with my kernel config.
Great, thanks for checking!
Just a minor notice - stable rules declare two common ways for upstream patch mentioning in backports [1]. And the first one starts from lowercase. No big deal here definitely but maybe somebody has some handling of these two variants - by regexps or similar, I actually don't know. But I see in the git history that Greg also applies the variant you've used.
Honestly that doesn't matter, as long as the upstream commit is referenced. I always do it this way, not my first stable rodeo.
