Thanks everyone for the quick reply on this. I agree.
Ok, I've dropped this patch from all of the stable queues for now.
Both now queued up, thanks.

Hi Greg,
I only see those two queued up for 4.14 and not any earlier kernels. You originally added the first patch to 3.18, 4.4 and 4.9. Are you still planning to add them both to those kernels?
Ah, I forgot about that. I'll go queue those up for the next round after these kernels are released in a day or so.
All now queued up.
