You're welcome!

No, I don't think there is a need for a patch for this, since the
issue was in a test merge, not in any particular branch or patch, as
far as I can see. So I assume Stephen will simply fix at merge
tomorrow.

However, if this slips and lands e.g. in Linus' tree, then yes, a
patch would be needed. Maintainers may mention it to Linus to try to
avoid the same issue again in the "real" merge into mainline.

I hope that helps!

Cheers,
Miguel
