Apparently Greg already applied this earlier... I don't know why the
original patch didn't reach me. I'm on the devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
list.

Did Jin Chen write this? If so why does it have a Suggested-by tag for
him? If not then you should have preserved the authorship credit by
using the From: header in the first line on the commit message...

Anyway, it doesn't matter but hopefully this helps for next time.
