...assuming, of course, that none of the fixes are for errors introduced in
some branch we already pulled, since then they should go on top of that branch.

I do agree with you but:
1/ the fixes are non-critical ones, so I do not see the need for another branch
2/ I didn't feel like touching the "cleanup" branch because we want to base all our 3.11 material on top of it, without adding new patches on top.

But, tell me if you think that it is too cautious...

I do agree with Nico on this as the cleanup this time was done early to avoid nightmare conflict so I prefer we do not touch it

We're happy to take branches with fixes that are not needed for
current release and queue them for the next one. We tend to merge
those into next/fixes-non-critical.

> 2/ I didn't feel like touching the "cleanup" branch because we want to base all our 3.11 material on top of it, without adding new patches on top.

Adding new patches on top of a branch that is a base for something
else is just fine, and is the way you're supposed to do things. You
don't have to rebase the dependent branches just because they're not
based on the tip of the cleanup tree any more. I.e. just send another
pull request for "cleanups2" or whatever, that's based on the old
cleanups branch/tag. After that, cleanups3 would be based on
cleanups2. Etc. Some platforms do this a lot.

Of course, that assumes that the additional cleanups don't conflict
heavy with the later dependent branches like I already said. I don't
think that was the case this time?

Fair enough, I have just sent 2 pull-requests:
- a fixes-non-critical one
- a cleanup one
