Sorry about this, we pushed the related fix to the net tree, to get it
to Linus sooner:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=a44f2eb106a46f2275a79de54ce0ea63e4f3d8c8

You can cherry-pick that locally, perhaps. net will get merged into
net-next tomorrow, I should have waited before extending the test :(
