The fix looks okay. Stupid question: What is the easiest/best way for me
to apply the same fix into my tree to replicate the merge? My tree has
some additional stuff in it to support the custom AT91 board I am using.
I tried downloading the patch 5391/1 from the patch system and using
git-apply, but there doesn't seem to be a way to force it into a merge
like you can with git-am (and I can't find that patch on the mailing
list). If I can figure out how to do this, I'll test the code to make
sure it is still okay.
