I'm not the author here, and I was just trying to provide an assist with
upstreaming, so I'm not going to get too involved.  I'd say this is an
edge case for being a stable tree candidate (it's produces a scary dmesg
warning but no other functional problems that I know of), and I didn't
add a fixes tag myself because of that.
