I think it would be good to add a specific example that was failing for
you: an example defconfig, and the relevant part of the build log. This
will help in the future if we wonder why this change was done.

Indeed, your commit log describes *what* is done (which is easily
guessed by looking at the code itself), but not *why* it is done.

I think it is especially important to explain that it is a regression
(and since when).

Thanks!

Thomas
