I would have preferred this patch to come after the one that is
actually justified for 4.15, so that it could be held off to after
4.15.  After all I see no substantive reason why this should get a
freeze exception.

However, it looks fine based on code review and I don't want to add
risk by asking you to transpose the two patches, so:

It is a bugfix to a very recent patch which already already got a
release ack.

If this doesn't get an ack, then 81b2b328a2 should be reverted.  (Except
obviously that would be a bad move.)
