I would suggest get those 5 done, reviewed and well tested first.
Otherwise, you might find yourself doing the same fix to many cpu's
instead of "only" 5.

Then do the other ones and ask maintainers (or somebody else with
access to a suitable board on his desk) to perform the test. If you
could provide them with a few instructions, they can do the tests real
quick and you get consistent reports.
