FWIW, I sent a backport of a slightly earlier version of this patch,
but all I got back was vitriol about violating the kernel Documentation on
sending to stable.

Maybe a native english speaker could re-write that Documentation,
so that a native english speaker can understand it?
Or better yet, somebody can write a script or update checkpatch so that
developers can more likely avoid the Soup Nazi treatment?

ie. I agree with you, and I'm happy to help, but it isn't clear how.
