Jesper,

(Emails from you don't seem to make it to me, so I looked at your patch
in lkml.org archive.)

Good catch!

Although either fix will work, I do prefer Dan's suggested fix.  Could
you please implement that?

Since emails from you don't seem to make it to me, and since Dan's
suggestion is trivial to implement, I'll just ack that form of the fix
right now:

Acked-by: Andy Walls <[email protected]>

Regards,
Andy
