ACK/cmnt: [PATCH 0/4][SRU][B/D/E] Several Hisilicon SAS Host fixes

[Marcelo Henrique Cerri]

That's a gray area to me, if you can cherry pick individually to
different series, even not being able to git am the exact same .patch,
why would it need to be tagged as a backport?

I mean, the line "cherry-picked from upstream" is still completely
true in this case.
