I'm inclined to agree with Eric here that you might be a bit careful about autosel'ing 5.18, given how extensive the changes were. In theory they should all be properly sequenced so that nothing breaks, but I'd still be cautious. However, if you want, maybe we can work out some plan for backporting.
It's still way too early to backport these, but I'll maintain these two branches for a little while:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random.git/log/?h=stabl... https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random.git/log/?h=stabl...
So that when or if it does ever make sense to do that, it's been maintained incrementally while the knowledge is fresh. I'm omitting from those branches new feature development, such as vmgenid.
