Subject: Should we go for Linux 5.15.64 for Core Update 170?

Hello development folks,

earlier today, I came across https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v5.x/ChangeLog-5.15.64, in
which several commits caught my attention, particularly all those in the tcp/netfilter subsystems.

Generally, I am not a fan of updating the kernel in Core Updates while they are already in
testing (unless something is badly broken, of course), since this is an uphill battle, and in
the past has delayed releases quite notably.

Therefore, I would be grateful for input, since I am not too sure how to judge the severity of
these aforementioned kernel commits. Is this something we should bring to our users sooner rather
than later? Does anything strike you as "hey, we have dealt with this bug for ages, and it is
finally resolved upstream"?

Thanks in advance, and best regards,
Peter Müller
