I agree, however as an FYI in this case -
I had few review comments on PATCH-1 here [1] - which along with the
commit msg changes, also had a code change involved, so IMO, it's still
a good idea if Amit can test and send an updated patch separately for this -
to be pulled in for 7.2.

Replying to Vaibhav comment here so that we can reach to the conclusion
at one place.

I agree, we need not use a fixes tag then. So, we shall mark this
with v6.10 tag then.

Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # v6.10+

(I calculated this based on when Power11 was added: 
git tag --contains c2ed087ed35ca    | grep -E "^v" |head -1
v6.10
)
