Sorry. I've fixed that for all the patches.
I also found out that the previous series was incomplete. It solved the
use-after-free bug but produced a new one. It turns out that several
more patches are required in order to fully solve this problem.

I think the documentation patch is needed because it safely fixes a docs
file section on the issue and a comment fragment. It is important for
consistency because that docs patch describes the problem and gives more
clarity to the code, and it was included in the original patch series as
well.
