As far as stable prior to v6.8 is concerned, once this hits Linus' tree you can submit an adjusted backport for the older kernels to the stable team.

Please do NOT submit an adjustable backport.

In this case, I think we don't need to back port this to stable, because there is no user of fsnotify_open_perm without CONFIG_SECURITY. Did I miss something? Thanks, Song

Well, this is not a problem because CONFIG_FANOTIFY_ACCESS_PERMISSIONS has "depends on SECURITY". So fsnotify_open_perm() can have anything to do only if CONFIG_SECURITY is enabled. That being said I agree it makes sense to decouple security & fsnotify because there's no significant benefit and only confusion. So I like the patch but please update the changelog and also finish the split as Amir suggests.
