Looking at:
Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst
I guess this:
"There furthermore is a variant of the stable tag you can use to make the stable team's backporting tools (e.g AUTOSEL or scripts that look for commits containing a 'Fixes:' tag) ignore a change::
Cc: <stable+noautosel@kernel.org> # reason goes here, and must be present"
Might want to explain in that reason there what the situation is and that this patch should be backported only when the SNC change is in the tree or so, yadda yadda.
Or the crypto one - your patch 1 in this thread.

Nah, I can fold everything in.
Thx.
