Stefan, All,

I've moved the upstream reference into the patch itself, since that's
where it'll be easier to find when we need to asses the patch status
next time we bump the package.

And since the PR was accepted and merged, I've changed the reference to
the commit URL.

Applied to master, thanks.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
