The patch is part of a larger series that would have to be backported
completely, but the bug it fixes was triggered by fuzzing and I don't
think it's that important for 4.18 stable. It would make more sense for
some long-term branch like 4.14 though.

The whole series is 959b1c04675735aa..81ffd56b5745355b
