This is a good question, apparently the content of the queued patch is:
commit 4df607cc6fe8e46b258ff2a53d0a60ca3008ffc7 Author: Nathan Huckleberry <nhuck@google.com> Date: Mon Jun 17 10:28:29 2019 -0700
kbuild: Remove unnecessary -Wno-unused-value
however the commit message is from:
commit 25cec756891e8733433efea63b2254ddc93aa5cc Author: Matthias Kaehlcke <mka@chromium.org> Date: Tue Jun 18 14:14:40 2019 -0700
net/ipv4: fib_trie: Avoid cryptic ternary expressions
Other than that the stable port also is missing a Signed-off-by tag from Nathan.
Looks like the patch didn't actually make it into -stable yet? If that is correct we should be in time to fix it up before it becomes part of the git history.
