Looking for "CVE" in the changelog, these look like good candidates for
stable as well:

    191f59dc17396bb5a8da50f8c59b6e0a430711a4
    vga: check the validation of memory addr when draw text

    f887cf165db20f405cb8805c716bd363aaadf815
    ui: place a hard cap on VNC server output buffer size
    (and the preceding patches)

Confirmed, AFAIK that are the only two patches that are required for
Spectre on s390x (together with the linux-headers update).
