you think should (or shouldn't) be included in the release.

92 b8bfb1478d61 Kevin Wolf:
    qcow2: Fix corruption on discard during write with COW
93 389f5bcc744d Kevin Wolf:
    iotests/046: Test that discard/write_zeroes wait for dependencies

since number 92 can cause an issue [0] that is much easier to run into
than the one it solves, but still similarly bad, I think it should only
be included together with Thomas' fix [1] on top. I know that one has
not been applied to master or reviewed by a maintainer yet, so if
including it goes against procedure, maybe it'd be better to leave 92
(and 93) out for now or delay the release?

Same for the other stable series. Thank you for the consideration!

Thank you very much for letting me know.  Yes, it isn't good to include
"Fix corruption on discard" without the follow-up fix.  So it would be
very nice to have the follow-up fix applied to the master branch today
or tomorrow (this is Sat and Sun, maybe not the best timing), or I'll
have to drop the above mentioned two changes from the stable series.
Or indeed, releases should be delayed - in a hope the fix can be applied
on Monday.

I'll wait for some reaction.  Kevin?

Thanks,
