I thought about that, but this patch fixes a problem caused by a combination
of commits. The one mentioned above is probably the easiest to point at, but
the problem only became, well, problematic, with the introduction of Gen3
support in v4.6.
Furthermore, while it's probably possible to backport this patch to v4.6, I
don't think it needs to be included in -stable. For all those reasons, a Fixes
tag might not be useful. Of course please feel free to disagree :-)
