This is an unfortunate situation. We strive to have the bug fixed in
later releases all the way up to devel before the SRU is released. But
here we have to weigh in the following:

- there is a big benefit in releasing this set of fixes for noble now, as the 
24.04.3 release is imminent, and this relates to hardware support.
- there is also some risk in only releasing the kernel part for noble, and 
keeping the firmware at an older version.
- plucky is an interim release, and upgrades from noble by default to not go to 
interim releases. That being said, it's still a violation of the SRU policy to 
release a fix for noble while the fix is not yet in plucky
- to minimize that a bit, we will still pursue the fix and verification for 
plucky for these bugs in a timely manner

To summarize, blocking these fixes for noble users because the plucky
ones aren't ready yet, at the time of a point release, seems less
beneficial. We apologize to plucky users who mightAC still be affected
by these bugs, and also do noble users who decide to upgrade to plucky
and will see a temporary regression. Any help we can get to expedite the
plucky fixes and their verification is most welcome, as these bugs
require specific hardware for verification.
