I think in this case the better approach is to actually split these two things.
Probably make the partial backport an

UBUNTU: SAUCE: Backport bla..

This is a partial backport of helper functions introduced in
...
to be used by ...

(backported from 44a4085538c844e79d6ee6bcf46fabf7c57a9a38)

And then the cherry-pick as is.
