Indeed, that would be our first choice from an SRU POV. I was just offering
the "upgrade only the kernel bits" option as a compromise given the concerns
that cherry-picking the kernel fixes would be too difficult.

I don't think we would want to accept a wholesale update, even with added
userspace test cases. The previous SRU upload was based on a package *not*
intended for a stable release update; it includes many changes that are
clearly appropriate to make in a development release in preparation for the
next stable release, but just identifying an appropriate set of test cases
for all of the userspace changes (including the packaging changes) would be
far more time-consuming than just cherry-picking the necessary kernel
changes.
