I'm so sorry, I completely goofed on this one. It's what happens when
you are swamped with other work and are doing things without thinking.
I totally forgot that I need to remove this patch. 

Both these patches where in linux-next for a long time. So I believe
the merge will go just fine. Lets leave it like this, or I can rebase
and remove it?
