One more dimension to add to this.

Fwupd supports a "requirements" option on firmware. This allows
manufacturers to prohibit installation on particular software
combinations. If firmware doesn't work properly on fwupdate 10 then the
manufacturer should be setting the requirement on com.redhat.fwupdate to
11 or 12. This was discussed upstream recently due to some Lenovo
failures with fwupdate 10.

If Ubuntu picks up a patch on 10 then that requirement won't be
satisfied properly.  So please bring back version 12 to Ubuntu rather
than a single patch.
