So, Geert wrote a great patch description as to why this patch is
important as a fix, but none of that made it into the pull request.

When you have the write-up already available, and especially this late in the
release cycle, it'd really be preferred to have it make it into the tag
description. As always, documentation of the _why_ is a lot more important than
the _what_.

Merged into fixes-non-critical for the v4.13 merge window, since the
fixed commit is two years old and thus doesn't seem like an urgent fix.

Note that this means that any new fixes that are indeed urgent can't be based
on this branch, they need to be sent independently.


Thanks,
