Yes I did.  And I don't see how this statement is a problem as that is what
both your's and Christophs patches do.

If anything this was a statement in support of your series.  I'm sorry you
don't see it that way.

However, if we are getting rid of query_device and the last remaining call is
in this first patch why not go all the way and remove that call site as well?

Which is why I also said:

"We discussed this patch ages ago and decided against it and FWIW It does not
hurt my feelings at all to drop it."
