For me this commit makes perfect sense. Could you do the following things:

1. Clean up the description a little bit
2. Add your Signed-off-by tag.
3. Add "Cc: sta...@vger.kernel.org" tag right after your signed-off-by.
4. CC this linux-security-mod...@vger.kernel.org, sta...@vger.kernel.org,
   linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org.
5. Run scripts/checkpatch.pl
6. Re-send for review.

Thanks for fixing the issue. Keep up the good work!
