However, sk_chk_filter() is not idempotent as it sometimes replaces filter
codes. So running it a second time over the same filter does not work and
It's a good thing not to call sk_chk_filter() twice, but the commit
log is incorrect.
sk_chk_filter() doesn't replace filter codes anymore.
Fair enough. Then how should I correctly proceed to submit this patch
which fixes a bug in the 3.15 branch (only)? In 3.15.x filter codes
_are_ replaced (I just checked the code in 3.15.5). And I originally
based my analysis on 3.15.1. Your statement makes the patch an
optional improvement for 3.16.x, but it's a necessary fix for 3.15.x.
Do I need to submit this patch two times with different commit logs?
Thank you in advance,
Christoph Schulz
