Subject: crypto-rockchip patches queued for 6.1

Hi,

I couldn't find an existing mail with "[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.1 N/M] XYZ" to reply
to, so I'm just sending an email like this. Hope that's ok.

In https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git/
tree/queue-6.1 there are a number of patches which start with:
crypto-rockchip- like crypto-rockchip-add-fallback-for-ahash.patch

I guess they were (auto) selected as they contain a "Fixes: <commitid>" line.
Those 7 patches are actually part of a larger patch set, see here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/

All those patches have been merged into Linus' tree for 6.2 and there's a
hotfix planned to be submitted for 6.2 here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmind/linux-rockchip.git/
commit/?h=v6.2-armsoc/dtsfixes&id=53e8e1e6e9c1653095211a8edf17912f2374bb03

Wouldn't it make more sense to queue the whole patch set for 6.1?
Or (at least) the whole crypto rockchip part as mentioned here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/
under the "Corentin Labbe (32):" label?

Cheers,
Diederik
