Thank you both very much for the responses.

Toru: I just tested this on another 16.04 system (now with kernel
4.4.0-142-generic) and was unable to reproduce the issue there also. I
was able to reproduce the issue on both Bionic systems I tested however.
So there seems to be a difference between Xenial and Bionic.

Patrik: I believe LTS patches are required to be as minimal as possible
to minimize regression risk. It appears that the bug is resolved without
the change you mentioned. I looked at the code quickly and couldn't
determine whether this change is strictly necessary as the variable that
is initialized doesn't seem to be used within the module itself. Should
you disagree, then please report back.

I would like to ask a sponsor to review the debdiff and give feedback
about what changes are desired to get the patch accepted. I will then
also test the disco release.

Any feedback or additional information is more than welcome, I'm just
trying to move this issue forward as well as I can.
