I know Rafael asked to merge the two patches into a single one, but I still
believe its the best to have two separate patches to fix these two separate
issues. For example, picking this patch for an earlier kernel may produce
conflicts because the exit code was written at a later point of time and also
that the below Fixes tag applies only to the first problem only. And the
individual patch for the exit problem is already on the list.

Anyway I am fine if Rafael wants to pick it up this way only.
