I have not looked at the specific case. If the backport is backward compatible then why should it make a difference. That is, the default value should reflect the current state. In some cases a configuration variable is required for certain bug fixes.
Agreed, adding config parameter on a stable branch would be allowed if default stays the same and required for the bugfix, but in this case it is not required.
What am I missing?
This:
The flag is totally unreleated and actually adds a new "feature", which is the possibility for admins to forbid multi-attach. However, the flag has a sane default and doesn't change the default behavior but it isn't required to fix the bug.
