In general the best way to reach that is to make sure it reaches the
upstream 4.19.y stable branches by asking upstrema to backport the fix
to the series. If it is applicably this is not a problem in most
cases. As in the Debian stable release we follow upstream 4.19.y then
the fix will be included automatically at some point.
