Re: [PATCH v3] KVM: x86: Fix lapic timer interrupt lost after loading a snapshot.

[Haitao Shan]

Thank you very much.

I do have one more question. Is this fix going to be backported to
v6.3, v6.4, etc? Or perhaps that will be a decision made by other
maintainers? The reason for such a question is to decide whether we
have to keep the workaround for certain kernel versions.
