normally, just resubmit with [PATCH v2 ...] in the subject, unless
someone like scott says he'll take it as is.

Pascal,
I have applied this patch with some editing. Also, applied the patch that added the USE_DEVFS variable to the ref-manual.
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott
Thanks. I had a look at the commits and it looks like commit 7c6c7ac573f92bfc844977e0d7a97ca4aac9bc70 also introduced a strange change on line 946 of dev-manual-common-tasks.xml.
See: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/commit/?id=7c6c7ac573f92bfc844977e0d7a97ca4aac9bc70

Pascal,
Thanks for catching this. This was a result of cutting-and-pasting text in from the patch. I did not apply the patch in an automated fashion as there was some rewriting to do. So my hand-transposing missed those characters that were present in the email from which I was referencing. I removed them out and will republish the text later today. The commit to get them out is http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/commit/?id=3ffbebd6c638e9f5b334dfef1d4e0bcc698ae810.
Thanks,
Scott
