I'm not following what the problem is. Do you mean distro versions gcc
with the compiler bugfix, or LTS kernel versions?

For backported kernel fixes, this doesn't seem to be any different
from other kernel changes that might be incorrect, but a straight
backport of that kernel patch should still do the right thing in older
kernels, and set the frame size higher for old compilers but not
new ones.
