I think, but 100% on this, that not all 6a's were affected.
Patch it to the latest update. If you get a notification about your battery then it's probably fucked.
All 6s users hey a warning you might be affected. They give you a link you have to follow to check. Load the page, you're in your IMEI and it will confirm if you're affected
