Heads-up: one change merged for -rc6 that might be good to have in the next 6.1.y release

[Linux kernel regression tracking (Thorsten Leemhuis)]

Hi Greg. Just a heads up that likely isn't needed, as the change
mentioned below has a proper Cc: <stable@...> tag, so you scripts will
likely do the right thing automatically. But just to be sure:

I'm pretty sure Vlastimil would be extremely happy if you include
95e7a450b819 ("Revert "mm/compaction: fix set skip in
fast_find_migrateblock"") [was merged ~2 hours ago] in the next 6.1.y
release, as he in [1] wrote:

Thanks, yeah, it would have automatically gotten added, but I picked it
