Why is it important to backport it independently? In any case you need
management support for the new option.

We have
-mem-path FILE provide backing storage for guest RAM
-mem-prealloc preallocate guest memory (use with -mem-path)
PATCH 2/2 adds
-mem-path-forcefail if unable to allocate RAM as specified by -mem-path
Looks like it's time to consolidate the options related to guest mem
See individual patches for details.
