Hi Ajit,

I assume the backporting of the majority of the patchset explicitly not
requested, since two of them has stable tag but rest don't, but I would
like to confirm.

And I suggest backporting fixes as much as possible, since missing some
fixes may cause conflict for future fixes and prevent backporting them.
Hi Ferruh,
Most of the fixes are actually for changes made in 20.08
Since it is not an LTS, I think not really porting them should not be a problem.
But if there is any patch which needs to go into earlier LTS releases,
I will add it to the list of backports.


This is not just for LTS, if somehow we have 20.08.1, they will matter.
Also this is good for documenting the actual intention of the author related backporting the patches.

As far as I can see there is not explicit request to "not" backport them, so I will add the missing tags while merging.
