  [Other Info]
-  
-  * TODO: we need to clarify the importance of this before fully entering 
-    SRU
+ 
+  * This bug on its own isn't important enough to cause everyone to 
+    download a new qemu. But we now have another bug to bundle it with,
+    and users as well as the bug reporter are mostly interested in the
+    LTS. OTOH we need this fix here for F+H but the other one only for F.
+    Therefore intention is to hold it back for Hirsute via block-proposed
+    while fully completing Focal.

  Userspace tool obtained from project website:  na
  
  Fix:
  
https://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commit;h=86131c71b13257e095d8c4f4453d52cbc6553c07
  
  Package qemu
      focal (20.04LTS)       1:4.2-3ubuntu6.14
      groovy (20.10)         1:5.0-5ubuntu9.6
      hirsute (21.04)        1:5.2+dfsg-9ubuntu2

  It would be good to have this fix in 20.04 and the later ones.
  
  The patch applies cleanly to all levels.
