We have another patch from Fran?ois for the same issue, at
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/415924/. However, Peter raised some
concerns about Fran?ois approach, and your patch indeed seems better.

Fran?ois, can you comment/review Romain's patch? See
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/423143/.

Romain, any chance you can submit your patch upstream?

Thanks,

Thomas
