The merge window was closed already. I pushed this patch directly into patchwork,
so I should be handling it sooner or later.

Unfortunately, I had a crash on my home volume group, and I'm busy those
days recovering data from it. It seems I'll be able to recover everything,
but I'll need to move about 800GB of data between two disks (one of them is
a slow one), plus my backup machine. I'll likely break it into several smaller 
logical volumes, in order to help me to keep the backup updated. So, 
that'll keep me busy for a while. In the meantime, I'm working on a slow
notebook. So, I might still be able to review and add some patches upstream,
especially the more trivial ones.

Mauro
