I'm not sure if this option works for you, but in 1.10.0 there was a force-commit option added, I think it just labeled as Commit but basically you should be able to commit even when there are newer versions in the registry.
So if the new version in registry doesn't have any real changes other than changing versions from 1.8 to 1.11, then technically the flow in QA is the same and you could just force-commit on top of whatever is in registry. If the newer version in the registry really does have changes you need, then I think you would have to import the flow from scratch to get out of this case, and delete the original PG, not sure if this causes problems to possibly lose the state from some processors.
