Thanks for the backport patches, Lorenzo! I applied them to branches 22.03 -> 23.09. Next time though, please: - add a "cherry picked from ... " line to the commit - if the backport is straightforward (e.g., this one only had NEWS conflicts) just request the backport on the original patch email. - use the correct "[branch-xy.zt]" prefix to the patch subject; otherwise it confuses the 0-day bot. Why do we need to backport this to 21.12 though? That's before the last LTS and not supported.
