btw, I think we can drop this TODO para from the commit msg.. but
would be nice to get this (1/2) landed in v5.4-fixes as it fixes an
actual regressions..

patch 2/2 probably shouldn't be for v5.4, since according to kbuild
robot it is turning up some other problems.. but I still think it is
probably a good idea
