Well, commit 45fe729be9a6 was merged in v6.18-rc2. Previous stable kernel
doesn't have it yet.

I am not quite sure either.
But commit b58f0f86fd61 was merged in v6.15-rc2. So the stable version to be fixed
will be v6.18, right? Then commit 45fe729be9a6 will be included already. If so,
I think only 1 patch will be enough.
