They don't hurt (as long as no _separate_ driver update is needed!), hence I don't object to backporting in-se.
But their usefulness can be doubted, as they don't change the behavior of the kernel, unlikely adding e.g. new PCI IDs, or extending drivers with new compatible values. It's purely a documentation update.
