Hi Will,
The previous version, that is not built against linux-next would still
applies against current mainlein/for-next/fixes
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210215192237.362706-2-pasha.tatashin@xxxxxxxxxx/
I just tried it. I think it would make sense to take v2 fix, so it
could also be backported to stables.
Thank you,
Pasha
