Not exactly.

As stated in the commit: "this change allows one more device. Previously 
address 0xFE was never used."

I don't use slimbus, so I'll let people with more knowledge than me 
about this driver decide if it should be backported or not, but from my 
point of view, it is a valid fix.

But, unless s.o. complained that this extra device address was needed in 
a RL scenario, I would say that the patch should not be backported, 
because: "better safe than sorry".
