They are currently not causing any conflicts (that I would need to
manually fix up), so you can just leave them it you like.

More generally, they could have gone into a separate branch that you
merge and you ask Arnd to merge so that we only have one copy.  In
particular, quite a few people have a separate "-fixes" branch for
current release bug fixes.
