Digital dementia... Looking 3 weeks back I have put all relevant
informations into the patches in [1], mentionning the diff is from
Ilie.
Ilie for what reason did not react on any response for 3 weeks in the
CBL issue-tracker.
I think Nick wants to quickly fix the Kernel-CI-Bot issue seen with Clang.
Personally, I hope this patch will be upstreamed in (one of) the next
RC release.

I agree on CC:stable can be dropped.
Check causing commit-id:

$ git describe --contains 1651e700664b4
v5.7-rc1~122^2

Thanks.
