Why isn't this relevant for 4.19.y?  I can't add a patch to 4.14.y and
then have someone upgrade to 4.19.y and not have the same fix in there,
that would be a regression.

So can you redo this series also with a 4.19.y set at the same so we
don't get out of sync?  I've queued up your first patch already as that
was in 4.19.y (and also needed in 4.9.y).

thanks,
