Ok! For second patch would be needed to put CC:stable line with
specifying prerequisite of first patch as written in document:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html

If I understood it correctly, second patch needs following line:

Cc: <stable@...r.kernel.org> # <commit_id_of_first_path>: comphy: errno return codes

where <commit_id_of_first_path> is commit id of PATCH 1/2.

(correct me if I'm wrong)

Now when first commit has commit id, could you update second commit to
include this information about prerequisite?
