If there is stable free for 23.03 then we need to do this.
From patch author PoV(as per policy), we can mark as Cc:
stable@dpdk.org and stable tree maintainer will do rest.

The only case where an author does need to add Cc: stable@dpdk.org is
when, it is fixing something in the current release where a bug is
introduced in this current release.
