Hi all,
Apologies in advance if you see this twice. I did not see the original
make it to either lore.kernel.org or the freedesktop.org archives so I
figured it might have been sent into the void.

Was this patch ever applied or was the issue fixed in a different way?
If CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO is enabled (it is on by default when the
compiler supports it), bi_next will be deterministically initialized to
NULL, which means 'bi_next->num_planes = 0' will crash when the first if
statement is not taken (i.e. 'i > num_groups - 1'). This was reported to
us at [1] so it impacts real users (and I have been applying this change
locally for six months). I see some discussion in this thread, was it
ever resolved?
