> I submitted this for Jammy because, in my understanding, SRU requires that the change be included in the current devel series first.

right, that's the normal requirement; however the fix used in stable releases doesn't necessarily have to be the same as a fix in the devel relase and/or upstream; the SRU fix can/should be different if the upstream fix is larger or more complex than is needed to fix something in a stable release. For example, if a bug was fixed upstream by a large refactoring/rewrite of some subsystem, it wouldn't be appropriate to backport the rewrite, and would be fine to manually create some patch to fix only a specific problem, even though that patch would not be how the bug was fixed in later releases.

For this particular issue, and again IMHO, this should be fixed *correctly* upstream (i.e. the devel release), and fixed *simply* (i.e. with the patch to hack systemd) in stable releases (though SRUing a "correct" fix would be preferable, if possible).
