Already fixed in upstream git and should be part of next upstream release:
https://github.com/nxp-imx/mfgtools/commit/311ee9b3cca0275fbb5eb5228c56edbb518afd67

FWIW My general feedback is that people will be distracted by a MBF
right before a freeze (and will often miss forky tags and notices).
Also if you wait just 'til after the freeze (start of forky) then likely
a bunch of upstream will already have caught up and some people (like
myself hopefully) will likely already have uploaded the latest upstream
release and thus your MBF will be a lot fewer.
But I also understand that you want to give the long tail as much
heads up as possible. Maintainers can if bugs are filed set forwarded
and fixed-upstream tag which can help if you want to work on patches
for the remaining ones and upstream them. It's a judgement call and I
guess as I see it, it depends alot on how much effort you intend to
invest into the bugs after they have been filed...

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
