I'm just disagreeing that the patches are the same. I agree that Miculas did do the hard work by finding the cause of the issue in the first place - but he's correctly credited as the reporter.

As for the clean patch - part of the issue is that Miculas was slightly overengineering some of it with the additional macros and added noise with extra conditions on the fpidx declaration.

Ellerman's "I don't want to coach this rookie" vibe is somewhat understandable given this is the security mailing list - it's just not the time and the place to be going back-and-forth.
