Hello,

Please picked up this patch for linux 4.9 and 4.14 (linux 4.4 needs a small modification).
Indeed, this code will be beneficial to the GNU/Linux distributions that use a longterm kernel.

Thanks for doing these (and 4.4). It'll be nice to have this available.

This is a hardening patch rather than something that addresses a known
