After 3 days of successfully running 5.4.143 with this patch attached and no issues, on a production workload (host + vms) of a busy webserver and mysql database, I request queueing this for a future 5.4 stable, like the 5.10 one requested by Borislav; copying his mail text in the hope that this is best form.

please queue for 5.4 stable
