Hi Greg,

Can you please consider taking the patch "KVM: x86: hyper-v: fix type of valid_bank_mask" into stable?

Commit ea8c66fe8d8f4f93df941e52120a3512d7bf5128 upstream.

For what kernel tree(s) should thie be backported?

For me, Ubuntu LTS is important (4.15 and 5.4). I believe, Vitaly and Paolo may know better for Red Hat, and in general.

Did you test this on any of these older kernels? Please do so and provide the backported kernels. Also you can not skip a kernel version (i.e. it needs to be in all stable kernels back to 5.4 if you want it there.)

And note that 4.15 is not a supported kernel by us, please work with Canonical if you want a patch applied to their random kernel tree.

thanks,

greg k-h
