Just checked it and it looks like the patch already mentioned in the
"commit xxxxx upstream" line:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=d9f179877e50ae2681fe7b0b83e0d9f63b6165ad

I've only rephrased the commit message (see above my signed-off-by line) to
explain why it is a user reported [1] problem. The initial patch didn't
explain this at all and made it look like a simple cleanup change. We
only became aware of the importance of this change after the original
"cleanup" version was accepted by Linus (part of 4.8-rc1 when I remember
correctly).

Kind regards,
	Sven
