I think it should go to mainline. It is not perfect, but still better
than the current situation.

Fine with me, but not up to me. But I guess Andrew could merge it.

The patch is providing a fix to my own code, and I acked it already. The

been done.

Well, I merged it and can send it upstream. But Jamie's observations
give me pause?
