Since the kernel doesn't use this value nothing bad will happen.
But, since __send_cgf_msg is hardly a fastpath I've applied the patch,
thanks.

Here, so that git-am can remove the non-changelog part
automatically.
Also, please send a copy of the patch to yourself

Your mailer program mangled the tabs in the patch so it didn't apply
without manual editing.
Thanks.
