I wish the commit message would say what the use visible effect of the
bug is. I looked at it and I don't think this patch hurts but I also
didn't necessarily see a that the original code had a user visible bug.

I read the documentation but it wasn't as unambiguous as I'd prefer.

But I'm not a subsystem expert.
