This can be fixed easily. I will see if I can cook up one.

I am sure if we upgrade to latest point release of 4.1 then most of
fixes may be available.
but there are more than 1 fixes that would require backport

This patch https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/614548/ is required and
I gave pointers for that to Bruce
and was hoping that with
http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=f1c75b93a4e11425e595c5ce043fbb0276a41931
the above fix is bundled in but Bruce might be able to conform.

Yes, now, I wonder if we can backport fixes from newer versions and
still call it GPL-2 without getting
consent from patch authors. This is going to be a bit twisted.
