Stable 6.16.8 didn't require any changs.
I pulled the changes for 6.12.48:
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20250922103123.14538-1-farbere@amazon.com/T/#t
and 6.6.107:
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20250922103241.16213-1-farbere@amazon.com/T/#t
Once approved, I'll continue with other longterm branches.
