We don't.  But one often marks commits that should go to -stable using a Cc:
pseudo-header, and also includes relevant information (e.g. to which stable
kernels it should be applied to) to the commit message.

Since there wasn't one, and I didn't readly find any post in this thread
that mentioned it should also go to stable, AND it looked at first glance
like something that should go to stable, I asked about it.
