Yeah, guess so? Although I must admit it's not quite clear to me whether
bpftool gets stable backports, or if it follows the "only moving
forward" credo of libbpf?

Anyhow, I don't suppose it'll hurt to have the Fixes: tag(s) in there;
does Patchwork pick these up (or can you guys do that when you apply
this?), or should I resend?
