This patch is fine and standalone enough, that I merged it into my
wireguard.git devel branch:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/zx2c4/wireguard-linux.git/commit/?h=devel&id=fbd8c752a8e3d00341fa7754d6e45e60d6b45490

If you wind up rerolling the rest of these, you can do it against that branch.
