Someone else can speak for me, but I think a SRU or backport would be the
correct procedure here. Someone would have to approve an SRU (as per the
procedure here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure), but
if rejected, it can be requested as a backport:

Frankly though (and I don't know everything, so don't quote me on this), I
doubt that xorg-xserver would be backported since it's a core package.
