Hmm. The patches in your attachements are whitespace-damaged. I was
going to apply that series and see what the difference was to my
minimal trial, but with the corruption that isn't possible.

I didn't find anything obviously wrong in my series, so..

Could you send the patches you used for your backport with the
whitespace fixed, and preferably with the patch numbering explained?
