Why only 4.4.y for these?  What about all of the missing kernels in the
middle (4.9, 4.14, 4.19, 5.4)?  I can't apply fixes to one older branch
and ignore others, as someone might upgrade and have a regression.

Please provide fixes for those other trees too, and then I will be glad
to merge these.

thanks,
