I don't think it's that urgent, as long as we make sure it's fixed in the
next -rc. I've sent out the reverts as patches with a little more information
in the changelog: it turns out that they are actually broken on linux-next too,
they had just not made it in there, and one of the two actually did build
on older kernels.
I think what happened here is that the fixes were tested on a v4.4 kernel
and blindly forward-ported. It probably makes sense to look at the
entire series again in case another one of them is broken.
Philipp, Hu, Bibby, could one of you have another look?
