Eh, Ackerley and Fuad did all the work.  If I had provided feedback earlier,
this would have been handled in a new version.  If they are ok with the changes,
I would prefer they remain co-authors.

Regarding timing, how much do people care about getting this into 6.18 in
particular?  AFAICT, this hasn't gotten any coverage in -next, which makes me a
little nervous.
