Unless the current upstream code can crash (and there is an isolated fix
for that crash that should cc stable): I'd prefer to see all related
patches folded into a single patch and the patch header updated to
clearly document what is being fixed with these changes.  Also is there
a userspace dependency that is required for this kernel patch to work?
If so please say as much.

So my current understanding is you should be able to fold all 5 of these
patches together and resubmit a single patch:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/6179141/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/6179151/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/6223631/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/6223651/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/6223641/

I'd be OK taking numerous patches but we aren't talking a lot of code
here... not seeing a need to make things more complex than needed.
