Maybe fetch the entire patchset (including attempts at hardening) from upstream git repo using fetchpatch?

Hi @ArdaXi, for patches like this we typically want to use fetchpatch instead of bringing the patches in to our repo. I've already made the change using fetchpatch, and will be pushing shortly. Thank you a lot for being on top of it, and getting these patches in so quickly!
