Any backtraces from oopses or notes on how it was found to record in the commit message?

Have you seen that this hunk is needed or just moving it for a good measure? To be clear, it is probably best to move it even if the current placement cannot cause any problems, I am just double-checking if you had any concrete observations here while mulling over easier stable backports if we would omit it.

Otherwise userspace can look up a context which hasn't had it's reference count increased yep. I can add the Fixes: and Stable: tags while merging if no complaints.
