Yes, the reasoning was that the patch is fixing the whole error path of
the function in one-shot since we can blame it on a single commit.

Yes.

this is correct, do you want to submit this patch or do you want us to
handle ?
maybe it is better if we delayed queue_work() to after all the fragile
code behind it, to reduce the error path handling ..
thanks for pointing this out.
