Tested on an amd64 laptop (Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 1). Working well, no
regressions observed.

Tested-by: Barry K. Nathan <barryn@pobox.com>

However, I'm curious about what's happening with 6.1.y and the "CrackArmor"
AppArmor fixes. As far as I can tell, they're still not in 6.1.168-rc1
(and presumably won't be in 6.1.168). Assuming it's not too early to talk
about it in public yet, where does this stand? Is it just a matter of
waiting a bit longer for stuff to happen behind the scenes (or for other
bugs/patches to be dealt with first), or is there something else going on
(such as a specific problem blocking it that needs to be resolved first)?

I see that these are now in 6.1.169-rc1 (also 5.15.203-rc1 and
5.10.253-rc1). Thanks!
