All,

the release is overdue (my apologies). Please point out backports
you find missing from the respective staging branches, but which
you consider relevant.
Ones that I have queued already, but which hadn't passed the push
gate to master yet when doing a swipe late last week, are

c6ad5a701b9a crypto: adjust rijndaelEncrypt() prototype for gcc11
9318fdf757ec x86/shadow: suppress "fast fault path" optimization without 
reserved bits
60c0444fae21 x86/shadow: suppress "fast fault path" optimization when running 
virtualized

I would like to also consider the following one:

28804c0ce9fd SUPPORT.MD: Clarify the support state for the Arm SMMUv{1,
2} drivers (4.11+ as updating the security support)
067935804a8e xen/vgic: Implement write to ISPENDR in vGICv{2, 3} (4.13+)
      To support newer kernel on stable Xen
d81133d45d81 xen/arm: Add workaround for Cortex-A53 erratum #843419 (4.13+)
fd7479b9aec2 xen/arm: Add workaround for Cortex-A55 erratum #1530923 (4.13+)
5505f5f8e7e8 xen/arm: Add Cortex-A73 erratum 858921 workaround (4.13+)
63b4c9bfb788 xen/arm: mm: Access a PT entry before the table is unmapped
(4.13 only)
f6790389613c xen/arm: sched: Ensure the vCPU context is seen before
vcpu_pause() returns (4.13 only)

I have put in parentheses the list of versions targeted.

My backport list seems to have very few tools patches on it.

If anyone has any tools bugfixes that ought to go into 4.13 please do
let me know!

Additionally, perhaps this one commit to be backported ?
   935e0836710ce8cab584155b2844cea8497a5159
   arm: replace typeof() with __typeof__()

I think it would be useful.

Cheers,
