NO.
First of all, _anything_ heading for updates that is not noarch needs
to be validated on both arches.
Secondly, when QA validate stuff for /updates, they dont need
to test _anything_ against backports as /updates is _only_ used to
fix stuff in /release & /updates.
If something in backports breaks as a result of something going to
/updates, that's a separate bug against backported package and will
be handled after.
Remember that /updates is priority 1, and /backports is handled
as QA time permits at lower priority.
