The Qemu patches are only ppc, which leaves some hope that the potential
to affect other architectures should be minimal :-)

The backport of the qemu fixes is not rocket-science, but also not applying 
as-is and at the moment I'd personally consider it more a feature than a fix. 
The series consists of 4 patches reworking code for the final one being "ppc: 
Add PowerISA 2.07 compatibility mode".
The question how much this is "fix or feature" might be important in the 
context of SRUing it eventually.
