This patch has been in linux-next for a sometime before I decided to send this.
My original intent was to send this for rc2, and my schedule was messed up with
traveling. Since I didn't hear any issues from linux-next soaking, I made a call
on sending this in for rc5.

On second thought I should have waited until 4.20. Sorry about that.
