Indeed the revert is correct.  I'm going to apply it in our internal
tree and send it out for v5.5-rc* (with stable in CC so it goes to
v5.4).  Thanks Mehmet!

The fixes for these two are already in v5.5-rc3, [1] and [2]

included in v5.4.7.

Kalle is on vacation, but when he gets, back we'll decide what to do

version that satisfies him so we can finally fix this bug.
