Yes it is, also other nfp patches are fixes.
This is for an effort to close the release, eventually it needs to stop
somewhere, and technically after rc3 is only for critical bug fixes, so this is
the time for stop getting these kind of patches.
After above said, relying on scope of the patches are PMD only and patches are
sent by driver maintainers, I will get them, reminding Thomas' right to drop
them back if he disagrees.
