It was originally two very small patches from Mr. Yung[1] and Mr. Cao[2]
combined and then cleaned up for upstream by Mr. Sheng.
There will likely be a bit more of this as they intend on upstreaming
more of the work that has been done out-of-tree. I believe most of this
is minor bug fixes and small feature additions.
