Which conflict issue?

109febfe58f9 & 221fba3b987c are in fixes line of this patch.

I am not clear with question but, the issue is:
109febfe58f9 & 221fba3b987c creates a defect and this patch fixes it.

If both 109febfe58f9 or 221fba3b987c get into stable tree, this patch
needs to get in to fix crash. If you prefer to get one of them (although
that doesn't make much sense), a backported version of this patch needs
to be applied.
