Subject: Re: Patch "Documentation: hyperv: Update documentation for sending VMBus packets" has been added to the 6.12-stable tree

Thanks. The removal of vmbus_sendpacket_pagebuffer() (upstream 45a442fe369e)
was itself backported to stable: 6.12.100 (899e014e6847d), 6.6.100
(6d2d375205455) and 6.1.140 (763db1b8b0036). Those trees no longer have the
function, so the documentation update matches them and I'm keeping the patch
in 6.12, 6.6 and 6.1.

Your note covered all three trees. Could you confirm that keeping it there is
fine?

Thanks,
Sasha
