I don't have access to a real hardware, so can't provide a "proof" of that.
I agree with Joe that's the same logic, and it compiles ok. But I
understand if you don't apply this patch, it's more safe with some
testing.

Thank you for the review. I sent a patchset, following the instruction
here:
https://kernelnewbies.org/FirstKernelPatch
And I didn't find a good way to send a patchset by mutt in a single
command, so I run "mutt -H PatchFile" several times to send it, and I hope
that is okay.
Best,
Binyi
