When we (stable-rt maintainers) do the updates we tag all merges which
had a conflict. So in this case when I updated from 4.19.255 to
4.19.261, there was merge conflict in 4.19.257:

  Merge tag 'v4.19.257' into v4.19-rt

  This is the 4.19.257 stable release

  Conflicts:
	net/core/dev.c

We do this to make it more obvious when we need to touch code by hand
which makes any verification later on simpler. But these intermediated
steps are not separately announced/released. There are available in the
git tree but not as tar files.
