   Closing as done. Patch-release docs are published and in the version dropdown — nv-versions.json lists 12.9.0 through 12.9.7, and docs/cuda-bindings/12.9.7 on gh-pages has 23 entries. Delivered via release.yml:192-199 calling build-docs.yml:61-72.

   The backport branch itself still skips docs deliberately (12.9.x:.github/workflows/ci.yml:188, comment "we don't build docs on the backport branch, see #809"), which is the design proposed in the issue body. 11.8.x was never covered and is legacy.
