+skiboot-5.4.11 was released on Wednesday Dec 4th, 2019. It replaces
+:ref:`skiboot-5.4.10` as the current stable release in the 5.4.x series.
+
+Over :ref:`skiboot-5.4.10`, we have below bug fix to support inband ipmi
+interface:
+
+- FSP/IPMI: Handle FSP reset reload
+ FSP IPMI driver serializes ipmi messages. It sends message to FSP and waits
+ for response before sending new message. It works fine as long as we get
+ response from FSP on time.
+
+ If we have inflight ipmi message during FSP R/R, we will not get resonse
+ from FSP. So if we initiate inband FSP R/R then all subsequent inband ipmi
+ message gets blocked.
+
+ Sequence:
+ - ipmitool mc reset cold
+ - <FSP R/R complete>
+ - ipmitool <any command> <-- gets blocked
+
+ This patch clears inflight ipmi messages after FSP R/R complete.
