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.
