Oh!  That's not good...  I am curious, which attribute caused this?

Also, if this is fixing a bug, then it might warrant letting the folks who look
after the long-term and stable kernels know.  I also wonder if there would be
something to add for the "Fixes:" tag, if there is a previous commit this
change fixes.
