With 2.5.62-mm3 (not -mm2) I need small patch to can_start_anticipation.
I've not studied the code, this patch may be the worst nonsense; and if
it's at all mysterious to you, sorry, I probably won't be able to give
more info until tomorrow...

No that makes sense. We want to remove the plug even if
arq is null however so I'll have to pass it in I suppose.
