4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This reverts commit 6a8f1d8d701462937ce01a3f2219af5435372af7 which is commit 0a42e99b58a208839626465af194cfe640ef9493 upstream. It does not work properly in the 4.9.y tree and causes more problems than it fixes, so revert it.
