My email records say that it was backported to 5.16:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220214092515.419944498@linuxfoundation.org/
On 5.15 I have no idea why not (no email).

Anyway, on linux-5.15.y, "git cherry-pick -xs ee534378f00561207656663d93907583958339ae"
does apply (it says "auto-merging"), so maybe Greg can just pick up the fix with one command?
