How "severe" are these fixes needed at the moment, so late in the
release cycle?  They all seem to involve fixes for stuff that has been
in prior -final releases, nothing new fixing regressions that showed up
after 3.11-rc1, right?

In other words, as these touch core USB code, I'd prefer, if at all
possible, to wait for the 3.12-rc1 merge window for stuff like this.
Especially if it is for issues that people don't really hit that often /
at all.

thanks,
