Having two Fixes: is awkward. If someone is considering backporting
this patch into earlier kernels then which Fixes: target should they
use to decide whether the fix is applicable?
So I think it would be best if this patch was split into two patches,
please.
And let's decide whther these fixes should be backported into -stable
kernels. For that, please alter the changelogs so they tell us what are
the userspace-visible effect of the bugs.
