Ah sorry I suggested this to Alvin since his Tyr patch series that uses
SZ_4G depends on so many other patches series that could change out
from under him. And I thought it was general enough that we could get it
in place before hand or at least get some early feedback.
But either way is fine of course.
Thanks
