I do not understand, the commit 10dce8af3422 ("fs: stream_open - opener
for stream-like files so that read and write can run simultaneously
without deadlock") is commit 9c829b6e3fe2 in the linux stable 4.9 branch
and commit bbd84f33652f ("fuse: Add FOPEN_STREAM to use stream_open()")
is commit cfd8d2e79524 in the linux stable 4.9 branch, right?

If so, that commit is in the 4.9.181 release, which _is_ included in all
of the android common branches already, as all of the LTS/stable kernel
releases are merged into the android common trees.

Right now the tip-of-tree of the android-4.9-o branch is 2641bba251cd
("Merge 4.9.209 into android-4.9-o") so of course 4.9.181 is also in
there :)

So I really do not understand what you are asking about here.  Is there
a specific patch that did not get into the stable releases that you feel
should go only into the android tree?  If so, what is that upstream
commit and why wouldn't it go into the stable releases?

confused,
