Thank Utkarsh. Yeah, we just dropped the ball on not getting this done sooner. I'd like to see if we can make the case for SRU'ing 6.8 in, so let's convert the bug to that.

I don't think we can justify dropping FAN support in an SRU, so let's add that port back in.

We'll need to make a convincing case to the SRU team that the risk of regression is minimal. Our partners at NVIDIA/Mellanox have offered to put this release through their testing. I'll see if they can provide details on what their tests will cover.

@matttbe - is there any documentation about upstream compatibility guarantees and regression testing done that you're aware of, or any tests that we could run beyond those in our autopkgtests?
