No, "Fixes" (for old kernels) should not be added without "Cc: stable@....".
And patches with these tags which should go through net-next.
It was decided that this is so irrelevant for most situations and fixed
primarily for getting rid of these constant "This problem wasn't introduced by
this patch, but...." reports by Sashiko. No need to increase the load on the
stable-kernel team for such a change.

Sven
