Package: src:linux-latest
Version: 4.9+80+deb9u9

Dear maintainers,

the binary linux-image-4.9.0-11-amd64 (4.9.189-3+deb9u1) provides some CVE fixes and was released to stretch-security on 20 Sep 2019. However, the associated meta package on stretch-security is still linux-image-amd64 (4.9+80+deb9u6) from 19 Aug 2018, which depends on a somewhat older linux package 4.9.0-8.
Is this intentional?

In our setup we pull upgrades from stretch-security only, and refer to linux kernel via the meta package. So we end up with a slightly outdated linux-image-4.9.0-8-amd64, even if a patched version was available in stretch-security.
