Can you explain why you have submitted these patches to my patch tracker
with a copy to stable@vger.kernel.org ?

What makes these qualify for stable tree inclusion?  What regression are
they fixing?

We don't put patches into the stable tree for things that /never/ worked
in the past.  We've never supported 32 CPUs so I don't think these
qualify.
