If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <[email protected]> know about it.

Isn't that what I did when I replied to the AUTOSEL mail a week ago?

https://lore.kernel.org/stable/[email protected]/

The TL;DR is the last part of the middle paragraph "... I think they should not be added to any -stable kernel."

Uargh, I should have been more explicit and not provided a TL;DR.

Note the word 'they' (and I should also have caught the word "it"). My original detailed mail concerned both "soc: fsl: qe: change return type of cpm_muram_alloc() to s32" (which indeed got dropped) _and_ "net/wan/fsl_ucc_hdlc: reject muram offsets above 64K" which is now in -stable :-(

I've re-read the code in fsl_ucc_hdlc.c, and I think we're lucky that it will work even despite being taken without all its predecessors (800cd6fb76f0 and on), so no need to revert it from -stable. But sigh.
