Okay, thank you for telling me that.

Oh, I misunderstood your suggestion. I'm sorry about that.
Our intention is to report this bug and try to provide a reasonable and
acceptable fix for it. Backporting is not our goal.

No, I didn't. I used to think the CC tag was a very cool feature, which
just putting a few commits lets backport easily when I read your mail,
so I copied and pasted these 4 commits in the beginning of revising
the patch v2. However, I'm wrong.

Since backporting is not our goal. I will just leave the fix tag here.

Okay, I will submit a test case covering all cases.
Because I still need to spend time learning how to use the fssum utility
for the last test case you reviewed, so I will submit the test case later.

Thanks.
