I can check later today to tomorrow if the patch is already MFCed to stable/11. If not done already, I can MFC it to stable/11.

But it’s unclear to me whether the code in -CURRENT is slated for an 11.1 patch, or if it won’t show up until 11.2 or even 12.0.  I see the "mfc-stable11 <https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=221385#h5>” flag on the bug set to a value of “?”.  Is that significant?
