Thanks, good to get this fixed before we start getting multiple entries
in the chain and expose it via mdev.  For that same reason I also don't
see that this needs any sort of stable backport as the existing code
works for the single entries in the tree.  Applied to next branch for
4.10 with David's R-b.  Thanks,

Alex
