I you haven't pulled this yet, please discard the request. I'll revert
the above commit as it causes a regression, reported here:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/Ybn4EfweLqKtyW0+@fixkernel.com/

Will is already on holiday, so I'll retag the branch tomorrow and send a
new pull request.

Thanks and sorry for the trouble.
