The backport looks good and thanks for doing that. Sometimes since we
know all the users are in the kernel, we tend to ignore the facts that
they need to be backport as this was considered as theoretical issue when
we pushed the fix. We try to keep that in mind and add fixes tag more
carefully in the future. Thanks for your effort and bring this to our
attention.
