Greg, the commit message tries (and apparently fails) to explain that we
can't really backport all of the commits to fix this properly.

The referenced upstream commit looks totally different because it
prevents us from entering the failing path to begin with. Since we can't
do that in stable, Ville was proposing to just the tune down the error
message, referencing the commit that gets rid of the error message
upstream.

Was this just a communication failure, or do you think this is still
against the stable kernel rules?


BR,
Jani.
