When I've noticed v2 didn't get upstream without that change, I did a v3, and got no response for that from you [1]. Than the string.c related changes broke that, hence this (v4) version. If possible, please try to get this into 3.3, as I think there's no chance it could break anything. Imre [1] http://lists.arm.linux.org.uk/lurker/message/20111107.200336.feeeb3c5.en.html
