This is an optimization rather than a bug fix, ideally it should be
later in the series to make things easier to apply as fixes for Linus.

Also the way you're writing your commit logs with "Fixes: " at the start
is really weird and conflicts a bit with the Fixes: tag that the kernel
uses to reference the commit that introduces bugs.
