Argh.
So the fix was applied to bpf-next back in May and the same people
come back to complain in July that it's somehow still broken and must be
fixed in Linus's tree.
So the new patch was applied to bpf and pulled to net
and on the way to Linus now.

We will ffwd bpf-next in a day or so, if git cannot handle it,
we will revert from bpf-next.
Sigh.
