I think it's up to David if he want's to send the patch for this rc or 
not. In my test environment the part that went upstream was sufficient 
to fix the UAF, so this was the part that actually went to Linus first.

@Dave can you send '34725028ec55 ("btrfs: simplify waiting for encoded 
read endios")' in the next PR? I can update the Fixes tag.
