Hi Ajit,

I assume the backporting of the majority of the patchset explicitly not 
requested, since two of them has stable tag but rest don't, but I would 
like to confirm.

And I suggest backporting fixes as much as possible, since missing some 
fixes may cause conflict for future fixes and prevent backporting them.
