Please see the section on stable patches here: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/networking/netdev-FAQ.html#netdev-faq for how to do this properly.

I didn't get any response from davem to my request (You are in CC).
In the meantime, I see in the netdev-FAQ:
A: Due to capacity, Dave could only take care of the backports for the last two stable releases. For earlier stable releases, each stable branch maintainer is supposed to take care of them. If you find any patch is missing from an earlier stable branch, please notify stable@vger.kernel.org with either a commit ID or a formal patch backported, and CC Dave and other relevant networking developers.
The last two stable releases being 4.19 and 4.18, I think 4.14 and 4.9 fall into the second category.
Therefore, what should be the way forward ?
Thanks, Christophe

That's indeed the case.

I've queued it for 4.9 and 4.14. Thank you.
