Thanks for the review Thomas. 

Boris, I have fixups to address all of Thomas's comments. Would you
like me to repost a new series with those fixups?

I'll drop patch1, since you have merged it in tip. You have a candidate for
patch2 as well, maybe I can drop that as well.

This patch has a type cast warning for 32bit compiles that I have fixed as
well.

I added a new patch to address Thomas's comment to print revs only when
loading succeeds[1].

Cheers,
Ashok
