The patch below does not apply to the 4.4-stable tree. If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit id to stable@vger.kernel.org.

The attached backported patch should apply to 4.4-stable and also to 4.9-stable.

Though I am confused about why this should be in stable, unless some later fix, required in stable, depends on this.
