Commits and especially backports suggest best practice

[Jacques Le Roux]

Hi,

I understand that every committer is free to commit and backport or not, but I'd like to propose a best practice.
When you backport something, if you know that it should not be backported in older releases, please pass the information. It makes reviewers task much
easier.
I put a note at

Thanks

Jacques
