Sigh, you're right.
Here's the intended one (along with a NEWS update):

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] grep: fix regression involving \s and \S

Commit v2.14-40-g01ec90b made \s and \S work with multi-byte
characters, but it made it so any use like \s*, \s+, \s?, \s{3}
would malfunction in a multi-byte locale.
* src/dfa.c (lex): Also reset laststart.
* tests/backslash-s-and-repetition-operators: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* THANKS: Update.
Reported by Mirraz Mirraz in http://bugs.gnu.org/15773.
