I would be willing to prepare a more clean patch for that.
Could we also get the fix for https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=979974 into stable at the same time? (Assuming it's actually needed; if you could help with confirmation of that it would be good.) > Also this code only affects one cloud vendor and should not break stuff > on other cloud vendors platform. It only adds information for IMDS. Agreed, I think the SRMs will be OK with this. We should show as much evidence of testing as is practical to help ease any concerns that they may have. > Would this be a patch we would agree to be carried through the full > release cycle of Debian 11?
