as the original commit breaking $comm support was merged for v4.20 
(which is a stable kernel) and the wrong behaviour with multiple strings 
exists in all longterm/stable releases (tested back to v4.4), do you 
think this should be going into a stable release once it's merged?

I added Greg as he might know the answer to that.

Thanks,
