@yrogge re: How is it possible:

I am not familiar with Ubuntu process, but it is common practice that security updates have high priority, and if there is something urgent enough, the release process should have a way to make a "hotfix" release directly from the previous one, before the (ongoing) review process of the "next master" is done.

(the changelog does not seem too urgent, but who knows - no idea what those issues were... https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/5.13.0-25.26)

Probably the current "master-next" branch (which includes this fix) will have to be rebased/merged on top of the new master (-25) and maybe get a new tag "...-26" or something.

However, I am a little concerned that I cannot find the -24.24 kernel in the proposed repo. Robot message above said it needs to be confirmed in 5 days, but people need to be able to DL it to confirm.
Maybe they will re-add it after it gets a new tag as -26 ? We may need some input from ubuntu devs...
