The right commits are

de9d61e83d43be9069e6646fa9d57a3f47779d28
317b0a6d8ba44e9bf8f9c3dbd776c4536843d82c
9a48bcd1b82494671c111109b0eefdb882581499

which are similar but not equivalent to the two commits you found.  They
should be in 2.1.3 if there will be one, and they are appropriate for
backporting to 2.0.

Thanks for confirming that they fix your problem!
