Sure, a follow-up cleanup is fine, but critically the cleanup need not be
backported, which is why I said:

Since Will has taken this patch as-is, and the fixes for v5.16-rc4 have already
been tagged, I'll follow up with cleanup once that's merged to avoid being
based on an ephemeral branch.

Thanks,
Mark.
