It was intended for v3.12 but the release came before it was merged
into the manline. So yes, it should go to the v3.12 stable tree.

I've always did stable submissions just by marking them as a
candidate for stable, this did not happen here because I hoped
it will make it into v3.12. It should apply cleanly to v3.12
stable, you could just pick it into you stable queue, or
alternatively I can submit to stable.
