I typically don't do "instant" backports.  If a patch is proposed for
both master and a stable branch I wait till it is accepted into
master. Then I give it a week or two before backporting to see if any
issues develop in master -- if I remember in the midst of all the
other patch wrangling for multiple stable branches!

I much prefer that people submit to master first, then when it is
accepted send a backport patch for the appropriate stable branches.
Sending all the branches at once just increases the risk that the
backports get forgotten!
