After a off-list discussion this was solved with Linus's commit [1], so please drop that one

Linux is like living in a teepee. No Windows, no Gates and an Apache in house!

Hi,

Additional patch is an improvement but the regression itself has already been fixed in the mainline (by reverting problematic changes).

Thanks,
Bart

Multiple people posted this fix, and Andrew's already made it to git (commit 275afcac9953ece0828972edeab9684cfe1a5ef3).
