At the time - when master was frozen - that was true.  But unfortunately
this didn't get applied in time for Fido, as a non-trivial patch that
doesn't fix existing bugs there's a large barrier to pass.  Now that master
is open the systemd recipe can in fact track the stable git branch instead,
and insert the git hash into the PV so it's obvious that it's taken from
git.

Assuming that patch gets merged and doesn't cause problems, then it would
be up to the Fido maintainer (that's Joshua Lock) to decide whether to
merge a backport, which could well end up being this patch.

Sorry about this, the final stage of the release was quite busy and this
slipped straight through my fingers.
