These stable fixes were not correctly noted as fixes when originally submitted for 5.2-rc1. We are addressing the internal gap that led to this miss.
Please consider these patches for all stable kernels older than 5.2.0, I tried on 4.19 and 3 out of 4 apply cleanly with a cherry pick from Linus' tree, but one of them I had to rebase, so I'm just sending the whole series.
If you'd rather I send one at a time in the format specified at option 2) of the stable documentation, please just let me know.
Patch 4 depends on patch 1.
I tried to follow the stable commit format for each of the individual patches, referencing the upstream commit ID. I also added a "Fixes" to each, trying to assist the automation in knowing how far back to backport.
