Which release should those patches go into (guessing Xenial but nothing does say
this)?
Since this is not part of upstream Linux it would be "UBUNTU: SAUCE".
The bug report should contain some SRU (stable release update) justification

--- TEMPLATE ---

--- END --

which is supposed to help (non-kernel-team) members of the sru team to get a
feeling about the risk associated with some fixes.

For sending to the mailing list it would be good to use a cover email

Subject: [Xenial SRU] <summary>

with some more technical background (summarized) about the patches.
