[Gluster-Maintainers] Release 5.4: Earlier than Mar-10th

[Atin Mukherjee]

Milind - response inline.

Shyam - I'm not sure if you're tracking this. But at this point any blocker
bugs attached to 5.4 should also have clones of release-6 and attached to
the release tracker, otherwise we'll regress!

Isn't this something which is applicable to release-6 branch as well? I
don't find https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/22221/ in release-6
branch which means we're going to regress this in release 6 if this isn't
backported and marked as blocker to release 6.

Are you sure the links are correct? Patch posted against release 5 branch
is abandoned? And also just like above, same question for release-6 branch,
I don't see a patch?

Above patch addresses logging issue only.
