Well, so another userspace gets confused...
I actually sent a separate userspace (i.e. Chrome) fix where I
encountered the issue, so I didn't proceed with upstreaming it in the

This matches my preference in [1], so of course I'd like to see it
merged... if maintainers are okay with it.
Given I've tested the exact same change before:
