Well, all I did there was implementing a suggestion from Linus, but I'm
not a specialist at all there. However I've read all your series and at
least with my limited knowledge, all I've read seems to make sense at
the code matches the descriptions. I don't remember any particular trap
in this place so I'm not worried.

I remember that I noticed this inaccuracy in the accounting but I
estimated it was not important since the goal was to *limit* resource
usage with a simple patch that we could easily backport. Your approach
looks clean and possibly backportable if needed. That's all I can say
I'm afraid :-/

Cheers,
Willy
