Maybe you can add this to patch 1 if we want it on net:

Fixes: e38f22c860ed ("vsock: SO_RCVLOWAT transport set callback")

Then I think that patch should go before patch 2, so we don't need to
touch that code multiple times.

so, IMHO the order should be the actual order or 3 - 1 - 2 - 4.

Another option is to send just 2 & 3 to net, and the rest (1 & 4) to 
net-next. IMHO should be fine to send the entire series to net with the 
fixes tag also in patch 1.

Net maintainers and Michael might have a different advice.

Thanks,
Stefano
