This is not how things work. :-)

If you want to see a commit backported to 4-4-1, then please build 4-4-1
yourself, cherry-pick the commit, build-test it, then test that the
commit on 4-4-1 indeed fixes the problem (otherwise there is no point in
backporting it), and if so, push to gerrit.  Once it's on gerrit, it'll
get reviewed as usual, and at the end either rejected or submitted to
the release branch.

The point is that who wants to have something on a branch does the work
of backporting (which may or may not be trivial depending on how much
conflicts you get), not the reviewers, who are already the bottleneck.

Thanks,

Miklos
