I agree, if I were a stable maintainer I wouldn't apply it.
I just put them in CC so that they can make this decision themselves.

It is hard to fix independently of our new devres utility.
Reason being that it's _impossible_ to have partial BAR mappings *with*
the current PCI devres API.
Consequently, a portable vboxvideo would have to revert the entire
commit 8558de401b5f and become an unmanaged driver again.
I guess you could do a hacky fix where the regions are handled by
devres and the mappings are created and destroyed manually with
pci_iomap_range() – but do we really want that...?
The leak only occurs when driver and device detach, so how often does
that happen... and as far as I can tell it's also not an exploitable
leak, so one could make the decision to just leave it in the stable
kernels...
@Hans:
What do you say?
