Sorry for the delay, I was travelling and will start nose diving now.  I hope
to have a concrete review and answer by tomorrow. Sorry for the two week delay
on the review and thanks for the patch!

Thanks for the patch!

Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@kernel.org>

I'll bounce a copy to Andrew for integration next.
