Greg, FWIW I did nothing more than a regular backport so that you can take
it as-is. I think you dropped it from 4.4 because it did not apply well
and was not worth the hassle, but given that it fixes a regression caused
by another backport I think it makes sense to take it, at least so that
some users do not stop updating. The fix was only merged into 4.19, not
4.4/4.9/4.14.

The backports for 4.9 and 4.14 are easy to do, if you're willing to take
the patches I can do them as well, just let me know.

Cheers,
Willy
