I'm not sure what you're looking for here. Are you saying this is wrong or that you don't understand it?

They issued a patch that did nothing but raise the version level: that's the entire patch. What purpose did it serve?

It looks as if there were a number of changes, which would necessitate a version bump. https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/10/6/85

The only change from 5.3.2 to 5.3.3 was the version number. The page to which you refer us is about the changes from 5.3.3 to 5.3.4.

Pardon my mistake.

Anyhow, it seems as if you've already figured things out. https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/10/1/58
