Where as the pfkey bug fix is non-intrusive and helps all
legacy applications still using af_key by _fixing a bug in
kernel_.

It's not a bug.  You're fixing a speed issue, not a crash
or a case where AF_KEY is providing incorrect data.

That is what I mean when I mean "life support", we fix crashes and
data corruption.  We don't make performance tweaks.
