Thanks for the patch!
I added the following tags to the commit message:
Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Fixes: 88b4a07e6610 ("[PATCH] eCryptfs: Public key transport mechanism")
I also added the function name to the commit subject so that it was
unique from your other fix.
I've pushed the fix to the eCryptfs next branch and I'll submit a pull
request for inclusion soon.
