Comment (by arthuredelstein):

 There are two more backported patches related to the JIT code. The first,
 9979ff809363114d1435846a9331c7bcd2490a7c (Bug 1234246), I simply cherry-
 picked from our previous 45.7 branch. The second,
 9c35223e6da4a29f48e1fba8b405aa92525d4bc2 (Bug 1234246) needed to be
 modified a little to be compatible with the security bug fix in
 52419a78cd379b7b253d405c2ec65421210f10cb.
