OK, that's what the patch does. But why does it do it?
In other words, when fixing a bug, please include a description of that
bug! And, if it's not obvious from the description, please also describe
the user-visible effects of that bug. So the poor schmuck at the other
end (ie: me) can work out which kernel(s) the fix should be merged
into.

The patch is wordwrapped.

And has its tabs replaced with spaces. sorry-youre-using-gmail.
Please see if you can get that fixed up for next time
(Documentation/email-clients.txt has some tips). Worst-case, use
text/plain attachments.
Thanks.
