Thanks for the patch, it looks good to me.

Just a heads up, you are not the first person to see this and send a
patch:

https://lore.kernel.org/20230912060801.95533-5-bgray@linux.ibm.com/

But as far as I can tell, there is no movement on that changeset, so if
Masahiro is able to pick this up, that would still be good. Masahiro,
the original change is available at
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230929190446.113168-1-jeremy@jcline.org/,
if you are able to apply it that way.
