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
