I would have love to backport the patch, I was more of looking for the fix. That's where I didn't applied the reported-by tag as I thought it reported internal only.

Hi Gopal,

I think it's somewhat inherent to the current kernel unstructured
processes with bugs being reported on mailing lists, bugzilla,
distro-specific trackers.
One useful thing, though, is searching Lore, e.g. searching for just
the crashing function:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/?q=amp_read_loc_assoc_final_data
gives the report and the patch (if we filter out all entries produced
by your patch, which obviously wasn't yet there before you wrote it
:)):
