We need to fix this ASAP. Flipkart reported this issue with 6.1.x stable kernel. Not sure why this commit was backported to LTS kernel as it is not a bug fix, but introduced as part of enabling live migration.

Back in March you were notified this was going to be picked up for the stable tree as part of the AUTOSEL work: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240329122652.3082296-63-sashal@kernel.org

Any reason this wasn't noticed then?

thanks,

I saw this patch go by but didn't notice that the other two weren't selected. The patches were sent as a series and tested as a series. The dependency on the other changes was likely not noticed.
