Yes, good idea, but these requests should go into stable mail list:
CC: stable@dpdk.org

As far as I can see that patch can be applied to stable tree without
modification, so I guess request is enough, no patch required, but
Yuanhan please correct me if this is wrong.

And 16.07.2 released yesterday, so this patch missed that release, not
sure when next stable release is scheduled.
