Lo! What's the status of this regression fix? It seems to be sitting in
next for a while already. To me as an outsider it looks like this should
be on track to get it merged for -rc6, as that's when Linus ideally
wants all regressions fixed; but it looks a bit like this is destined to
be merged in the next merge window. But I might be entirely wrong here
-- or I'm right and there are good reasons why the next merge window is
better here.

Ciao, Thorsten
