Specific enough?
The first one became a release goal AFAICS. The second and the last were not enough, but are needed to fix the RC bug AFAICS. The sleep is a workaround as otherwise people need to refrain from using restart. Which is an unfiled RC bug AFAICT. The GPL one is not just the boilerplate, but also fixing the copyright of some files. Which certainly can be seen as RC AFAICT. So the only one I could see you argue about, is the one about the initramfs or am I missing something?
