[Hans Verkuil]

Hi Nini,

This patch has now been merged in mainline as commit ce5d241c3ad45
("media: cec: core: remove length check of Timer Status").

To get this into older kernels please post this patch to
stable at vger.kernel.org, CC the linux-media mailinglist, and mention the
mainline commit that I provided above.

Also mention that this patch applies to 5.10 and up. You can mention
that the patch applies to 5.4 and 4.19 as well after removing the '/core'
directory from the pathnames.

Since you are the author of the patch, you should be the one to post
the patch.

Regards,

	Hans
