https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/856512/ into 4.14. It fixes a
potential resource leak when shutting down the request queue.

That's what the second patch fixes.

The third patch is just an optimization to stop processing earlier.

Is this actually part of a fix? Why do we want this optimization?
