[Sorry for being slow ... $EXCUSES ... ]

One could argue that they are indeed a regression; they introduced a bunch
of build errors into 4.14.  I think it would be better to see it fixed if
possible.  I don't care that much about how it gets there; Paul, I can
send it Linusward if you don't want to.

Thanks,
