Hi Sasha,

This should do any harm, but I deliberately didn't cc stable on
this one.

Alex, my assumption on this one is that it was fixing a logical
ordering problem, but one that had no visible impact.
Whilst the pollfunc will be attached too early, the trigger
will be disabled for the whole of this function anyway so
it shouldn't cause any visible problem.  Is that a correct interpretation?

Yes.
That is correct.

Maybe I'll change the commit title format so that there is no confusion.
It's a fix, but not in the sense that something was broken.
Just something that is the realm of cleaning up.

I'll drop it from the queue, thanks!
