Small heads-up: Both commits are now in Linus' tree and included in
v7.2-rc1:

$ git describe --contains 736b380e28d0480c7bc3e022f1950f31fe53a7c5
v7.2-rc1~29^2~66^2
$ git describe --contains eca856950f7cb1a221e02b99d758409f2c5cec42
v7.2-rc1~29^2~66^2~1

Can you queue those as needed down to the 6.1.y stable series?

Thank you already,

Salvatore
