As mentioned in the document, I tried a quick backport of the patches
onto 4.19.27 (LTS), but it didn't apply smoothly. I tried to solve the
conflicts, but in the end it was not building...

Before we have someone spending some time on backporting anything, we
need to make sure that we all agree on the kernel we want to use for
this purpose.

Stefan, thanks for proposing your help here, as I'm sure it'd be the
best option if you, David or Vivek could do the backport once we took a
decision about the kernel version, since you all know the patches
better than anybody else.

Thanks,
Sebastien
