Hi

I would suggest to have some commits cherry-picked to 21.02:

920eaab1d8 kernel: DSA roaming fix for Marvell mv88e6xxx
af22991e03 build: make sure asm gets built with -DPIC

I consider the first commit critical: without it clients get
disconnected for 5 minutes  when roaming from an affected AP (Omnia,
WRT3200, among others) WLAN port to a LAN port (roaming between
LAN-connected APs, for example).

The second one is needed to build strongswan for x86_64 [1].  The
support commits have already been pushed to the 21.02 branch of the
packages feed.
