Hi Will,

The previous version, that is not built against linux-next would still
applies against current mainlein/for-next/fixes

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210215192237.362706-2-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com/

I just tried it. I think it would make sense to take v2 fix, so it
could also be backported to stables.

Thank you,
Pasha
