This last hunk actually causes another issue to which I created a BZ prior to
going through your patch (I was just testing 1/2) and instead cooked one on my
own, but since you're addressing it too, I would strip this hunk to a separate
patch, squeezed it in between 1 and 2 and linked
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1472277 to it - I also think that
since this hasn't worked as advertised since commit @08c0ea16fc, this should
go to v3.2.0-maint and onward.

PS: I still need to do an actual review of this patch though, this was just
something that I spotted right away.
