Yes, this patch should go to stable. I think the stable tree maintainers

No. Both the Fixes: and the cc:stable are needed for the backport.
Because sometimes we fix things but don't consider the fix important
enough to risk the backport.
I see. Thanks for the clarification. I will keep that in mind next time.
