Hi Ludovic, Usually we backport only bugs fixes to keep LTS (11u) release stable.
To backport into 11u you need approval [1]. Here is example [2]. You need also point if backport applied cleanly or you have to make changes. Changes should be backported separately to keep track - do not combine changes. But it is okay to push both changesets together (especially if followup changes fixed first).

Hello, I would like to backport the newly added MD5 Intrinsic to JDK 11. The change is contained, limiting the chance of a regression, and provides a great speedup on a common pattern. This change also contains the follow-up fix by Vladimir Kozlov. As it is the first backport I go through, please let me know what other steps I need to take.
