It's in drm-misc-next, IIUC heading for Linus' tree in the next merge window in 6-8 weeks. Which is to say this should probably have been applied to drm-misc-fixes branch heading for v5.10-rcX, with a Cc: stable tag, to begin with.

Ok, nothing I can do with this now, please email stable@vger.kernel.org when it hits Linus's tree and we can take it then.
Saeed, please read: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html for how to do this properly.
