Have verified this patch does not exist in them currently. The patch fixes LACP mux machine state changes which if incorrect can cause a partner switch to send duplicate frames to a Linux host. This patch has been verified to fix a problem seen on a v3.10 system, and Cumulus is shipping this patch on kernel versions as old as v3.2. Thank you, -Jon
