Thanks, that also works.  That commit message is very explicit in this
regard.  When reviewing a patch, it helps if that kind of information is
included in the commit message (and it also helps review old patches in
the future, not just when applying it).  It's covered in ./CONTRIBUTING:

       -  Describe how you obtained the information in your patch.  For
          example, was it:

          -  by reading (or writing) the relevant kernel or (g)libc
             source code?  Please provide a pointer to the following
             code.

          -  from a commit message in the kernel or (g)libc source code
             repository?  Please provide a commit ID.

          -  by writing a test program?  Send it with the patch, but
             please make sure it's as simple as possible, and provide
             instructions on how to use it and/or a demo run.

          -  from a standards document?  Please name the standard, and
             quote the relevant text.

          -  from other documentation?  Please provide a pointer to that
             documentation.

          -  from a mailing list or online forum?  Please provide a URL
             if possible.

Cheers,
Alex
