The two Fixes tags are for the two stable branches:

- a4983e89e3b1 is the 6.1.y backport
- 32bad10de347 is the 6.6.y backport

Both backports changed this allocation from GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT back to
GFP_KERNEL, which introduced the regression. The accounting was correct
before these commits.

I used one Fixes tag for each target tree. I am not sure what the usual
preference is here: one common patch with both Fixes tags, or separate
patches for each tree. Which do you prefer?

Thanks,
Karl
