Does this mean we will be seeing the 0701 RSU for 5.2.0 soon?

Subject: FYI APAR HIPER flag change (cross posted)
Greetings,
If you follow HIPER APAR's, please do not be alarmed. This
note explains some changes that caused us to review all active APAR's,
and change the HIPER flag when needed.
System z, z/VM APAR HIPER and RSU process changes:
* IBM's current service guidelines requires all APARs that
result in system outage be marked 'HIPER'.
* In z/VM's case, this also applies to APARs that correct
virtual machine outages.
* This same APAR may or may not also be marked
"PERVASIVE".
* The previous guideline required any system or subsystem
outage APAR to be marked 'PERVASIVE' in order to have been marked
"HIPER". As you can see this is a switch.
To adhere to the current guideline, system outage APARs that
were not marked HIPER have now been marked HIPER.
zVM's RSU philosophy has been to put all HIPER APARs on the RSU.
This has been changed. Now, APARs designated "HIPER" and "PERVASIVE"
are automatically included on the RSU. All HIPER APARs are not
necessarily "PERVASIVE" and as such may not be put on the RSU.
The HIPER designation is for customer awareness that these
problems exist, they cause a system or subsystem outage, and may or may
not be on the RSU.
Here are the newly designated HIPER APARs, currently in
supported releases R510 and R520:
