This caused a crash, right?  Can you please include what can trigger
such oops and how it looks like and reference to the original bug
report.  In general, when you're cc'ing stable, please try to provide
as much information about the bug as possible so that downstreams have
easier time evaluating the importance and risk of the change.  The
same goes for the previous patch.

Thanks.
