I agree and stable branch should be for bug fixes only, new features should be only included in the master branch that is for the next major release of rdma-core.

I also agree, most likely not every new rdma-core release will also need to have a stable branch. Probably just the ones that are ending up in distros. I think this is what the kernel does too,
Right ?
