Agreed. Basic approach on the patch looks reasonable, but please fix the
comment format to match other multi-line comments in the kernel. You also don't
need that many parenthesis in the if statement.

Even better would be to change the existing "if (!rc)" to:

if (rc)
        goto out;

...which would make that code more readable. Do we have confirmation that this
patch fixes the issue?
