Thanks a lot for taking care of this so quickly!

A minor note about patch processing: The normal way to forward
a patch from another person is to add your 'Signed-off-by:' line
below the one from the original submitter, i.e. in the place where
you have the 'Acked-by:'. Not sure if you just forgot to update
your patch or you weren't aware of that. Geert will be able to
fix that when he adds his own Signed-off-by line.

Also if you want to preserve authorship of the patch, you can add
as the first line before the description a line 'From: Arnd Bergmann
<arnd@arndb.de>'. Since you modified most the lines I originally
changed and the patch is very small, I don't care about having
me listed as the author, it's absolutely ok to have you listed here,
just explaining it here in case you intended differently.
