Saw it, looks good to me. We are, however, already very, very late in 5.9
release cycle and the original issue you were addressing (allocation
failure) is likely a theoretical only I suggest we just revert it before
5.9 is released. For 5.9 we can certainly take your PATCH2 merged with
0f99022210.
This Paolo's call anyway)
