Queued into:

Although this is strictly a bug fix, I would lean toward waiting for the
next merge window to open before pulling this in.
We can't really say that the kconfig frontends are critical, long-running
processes. If they leak a bit of memory, that's not too cumbersome, I
think. OTOH, I think breaking the frontends so close to the end of the
-rc cycle is a bit dangerous (heck, I would not like to be part of the
cause of a new flaming, just for this! ;-) )
So, unless Michal really wants to pull this one and push it to Linus
before he cuts v3.9 final, I'll merge this later in my -for-next branch.
Thank you!
Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
