Actually I was careful enough to include only commits that got merged as part of the stable process into 4.14.x but got later reverted in 4.14.y. That's where the 0.4% number came from. So I believe all of those cases (13 in absolute numbers) were user visible regressions during the stable process.
I looked at them, and there are 2 things in play here:
- Quite a few of those reverts are because of the PTI work. I'm not sure how we treat it, but yes - it skews statistics here. - 2 of them were reverts for device tree changes for a device that didn't exist in 4.14, and shouldn't have had any user visible changes.
