WTF: patch "[PATCH] selftests/landlock: Extend tests for minimal valid attribute" was seriously submitted to be applied to the 5.18-stable tree?

The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 5.18-stable tree.

I fail to see how this patch meets the stable kernel rules as found at Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst.

I could be totally wrong, and if so, please respond to <[email protected]> and let me know why this patch should be applied. Otherwise, it is now dropped from my patch queues, never to be seen again.

thanks,

greg k-h

This might be useful when the struct landlock_ruleset_attr will get more fields.
