It's unusual to have a cc:stable patch in the middle of a series like
this.  One would expect the fix to be a standalone thing against
current -linus.

As presented, this patch won't get into mainline until after 5.20-rc1. 
If that's OK then OK.  Otherwise I can shuffle things around and stage
this patch in mm-hotfixes?
