Greg already queued this for 6.12.64:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260106170510.964268694@linuxfoundation.org/
and 6.12.64 is now released. So I think we can skip this patch.
Also, if you want to figure this out without searching on lore. You
could use stable-queue repo to see if a patch you are trying to backport
is already being backported by someone else.
stable-queue repo:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git/
Thanks,
Harshit
