That's right, good catch!

Indeed, we need it too. [1] would fix it (tested it with a trivial
out-of-tree Rust hostprog).

Do you want me to send it separately? i.e. to avoid losing the
`Tested-by`s etc. that we already got for this one, which is the
important one since that actually has users.

The hostprogs fix is not really critical for stable, since it is
unlikely there are users at all (we just got the first in-tree real
user in the Rust+KUnit integration coming into 6.6), but I guess it
does not hurt for the same reason.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Miguel
