This looks right to me, thanks for sending a fix.

For broader testing, I can add this to my testing branch so it gets
booted on a bunch more platform in KernelCI also.

However...

This patch has been mangled by your mailer, so it doesn't apply cleanly.
If you're using the gmail web UI, this is a common problem.

I strongly recommend using git-send-email to send directly via gmail
SMTP. The git-send-email docs[1] give some examples on how to set this
up.
