Comment (by jnylen0):

 @kadamwhite what do you think about getting this into 4.7.3 if we can get
 it patched quickly enough?

 @ryelle are you available to write a patch and unit tests for this change
 today?

 As for the patch, I would suggest something like this:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 $sticky_posts = get_option( 'sticky_posts', array() );
 if ( ! is_array( $sticky_posts ) ) {
     $sticky_posts = array();
 }
 if ( $request['sticky'] ) {
     // ...
 }}}
