It'd be good if you'd reposted my patch along with this series, since we
didn't merge mine yet either. Don't worry about now, though, I'll pick it
up the same time I pick up this series, which I plan to do later today
or tomorrow.

Getting this series applied will allow me to try out our new and shiny
gitlab repo :-)

Thanks,
