Well, if that helps, given that I already needed to modify his code and that his proposal totally makes sense, I can also replace his signed-off-by with a suggested-by in the patch and put a link to the original thread. I'll do my best to propose an update before -rc1 if that's still acceptable. Amit found that the code doesn't build when tests are enabled, visibly they were not on my side and likely explain why that failed for Linus. Willy
