(I don't think 2.0.2 will be released for a while if at all but that's not
what you're asking I think)
It's a fairly safe change, but also isn't exactly a fix in my opinion.
Because there are some other changes to make it all work for SPARC, I think
it's more realistic to look to the 2.1.0
I would very much like to see SPARK-16962 included in 2.0.2 as it addresses
unaligned memory access patterns that crash non-x86 platforms. I believe
this falls in the category of "correctness fix". We (Oracle SAE) have
applied the fixes for SPARK-16962 to branch-2.0 and have not encountered any
SPARK-17841 three line bugfix that has a week old PR
SPARK-17812 being able to specify starting offsets is a must have for
a Kafka mvp in my opinion, already has a PR
SPARK-17813 I can put in a PR for this tonight if it'll be considered
