Thanks for the patch!

I added the following tags to the commit message:

Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Fixes: dddfa461fc89 ("[PATCH] eCryptfs: Public key; packet management")

I also added the function name to the commit subject so that it was
unique from your other fix.

I've pushed the fix to the eCryptfs next branch and I'll submit a pull
request for inclusion soon.
