It was found as part of the merge of v5.15.149 into ChromeOS. I did not check the
detailed circumstances and/or why ChromeOS stumbled over the problem. The merge introduces
other problems for us. We are busy tracking those down, so I don't have much time to look
into this further (not blaming v5.15.y, more likely it is the result of conflicts between
deviating code bases).

Most likely I missed some other commit when running "git blame". Never mind, though.
We'll deal with the problem internally. It was just a note to let people know
that there is some inconsistency in v5.15.y.

Thanks,
Guenter
