Yeah I'll add them all when merging. Just waiting for full CI results. It will be like this:

Fixes: eb4dedae920a ("drm/i915/gem: Delay tracking the GEM context until it is registered")
Fixes: a4c1cdd34e2c ("drm/i915/gem: Delay context creation (v3)")
Fixes: 49bd54b390c2 ("drm/i915: Track all user contexts per client")
Cc: <stable at vger.kernel.org> # v5.10+

Regards,

Tvrtko
