It's all up to the release team's decision, right?

We already miss docker from last release, and it won't be worse if it
is missed from this release as well.

But FRT, this time there are maintainers who care it and want to volunteer
their time.

There's nothing wrong in the procedure. Fixing RC bug and no maintainer
activity on the bug for 7 days, it's 0 day.

I have CCed the maintainers, and "apparently" there's no disagreement
afterwards.

All code could have bug, it includes the test code. If you find a
serious bug for this version, please file a bug, then it could prevent
docker.io to migrate.

But FTR again, I didn't blindly upload the patch. I do test, like running
the result binary, and the affected command. And more importantly, the
newly added code, didn't break any existing test cases.
