Hi Matti,

Thank you for your suggestion, I will add it to v3 as this patch and the
one that introduced the helper functions have not been applied yet, so
we don't need an extra patch to rename the function. I will add your
tag too because I will only change what you suggested.

Best regards,
Javier Carrasco
