1/2 is supposed to propagate to older kernels and needs to change as
posted here in v5 (assuming that this does indeed fix what the build bot
was complaining about). 2/2 also changes. A fix on top of v4 would fix
2/2 but won't apply cleanly to 1/2 as cannot easily propagate to older
kernels. Is that what we want? Why can you not remove v4 from your queue
and replace it with v5?
