I did see this patch when it came in and was just giving a bit for QA to do the builds. That took longer, I got distracted hoping I could merge mesa-updates first, then hit CI delays...all that is to say I should have communicated I had this on my radar. Sorry about that! I appreciate the patch and the nudge. Pushed as 06e0f638abd36f816a221af4542ca4a850d7af2d with a minor tweak to the commit message to note [security fixes] at the top. I built it locally for x86_64 with mesa-updates merged. Which reminds me to make sure we have a way to flagging security updates just like other teams/tags and get them priority. Now on the security team, it is a first priority. Thanks again! John
