Thank you, Jens!

FWIW, I think it's all good and it eliminates the reported problem
obviously. Compiled and tested the repro with my kernel config.

Just a minor notice - stable rules declare two common ways for upstream
patch mentioning in backports [1]. And the first one starts from
lowercase. No big deal here definitely but maybe somebody has some
handling of these two variants - by regexps or similar, I actually don't
know. But I see in the git history that Greg also applies the variant
you've used.
