Hi!

>     gpio: Don't fiddle with irqchips marked as immutable

This is attempt to move people to new API, which will cause warning
for existing users. "chip_warn(gc, "not an immutable chip, please
consider fixing it!\n");". It is marked as dependency of another
patch, but I'm not sure we should be doing this in stable.

Could someone double check this? If we hit the null check, we'll be
returning success, but it sounds like an error case.

> Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@...el.com>
>     drm/msm/dp: skip validity check for DP CTS EDID checksum

This is preparation for future cleanup, do we need it?

> Richard Fitzgerald <rf@...nsource.cirrus.com>
>     ASoC: soc-card: Add storage for PCI SSID

This adds infrastructure for white/blacklisting, but I don't see an
user of that in 5.10 (or 6.1).

> Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@...ux.intel.com>
>     media: cobalt: Use FIELD_GET() to extract Link Width

Cleanup, but not a bugfix.

> Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...aro.org>
>     SUNRPC: Add an IS_ERR() check back to where it was

According to changelog, this is only needed with commit 25cf32ad5dba
("SUNRPC: Handle allocation failure in rpc_new_task()") in tree, and
we don't have that in 5.10.

Best regards,
