is there a way to drop below patch from your repo?
during testing I found out that the code before and after this patch
leads to a NULL deref. I provided a fix (see [0]) which solves the
crash and the warning as reported by Paolo - and that fix is already
part of v4.12-rc6
so the patch below will cause a merge conflict
