No new options or behaviour. These releases are not picked up on the OE stable branches: util-linux has had zero point-release bumps on kirkstone, scarthgap or wrynose since each branch forked from master, leaving them at 2.37.4, 2.39.3 and 2.41.3 respectively. This addresses that gap going forward. Scarthgap already has v2.39.3, and the 2.39.x stable branch history (mount API regression fix in 2.39.1, new CPU model support, and libblkid’s bcachefs handling) demonstrates that util-linux exercises good judgement in managing stable branches, so we can safely track their stable series there as well. For the avoidance of doubt it is not a development-series effect either: util-linux has no development/stable version split, and pre-release work goes to -rc tags.
