Queued and pushed, thank you both!

Just to make sure I understand, you would like me to add this to the
serieses from Vincent, yourself, and Feiyang that are set up to go into
the next merge window, correct?

If you instead would like me to push it to Linus directly into the v6.3
release as a regression fix late this coming week, please let me know.

							Thanx, Paul
