It'd be great if the patch could be sent to LKML and let it be 
backported to the upstream 6.18 LTS tree instead of having it only in 
the OpenBMC tree.

To cite the kernel development doc [0]:
"Submit your patch upstream. It doesn't need to be upstream, but it 
should be on it's way, and not have any unresolved design concerns."
