Hi Linus,

sorry for not keeping you in the loop. No bad intentions, I just know that
you are busy. I knew about this change, and I had offered to send the pull
request. Stafford wanted to do it himself, so I figured I'd only (need to)
get involved if needed.

I had a look through the changes, ran a diff against mainline, and tested the
resulting code in qemu. I did this both with the previous version and with the
version rebased to v4.9. I even checked that Stafford now has his key signed.
It all looks ok to me. Please consider this a Tested-by: and Reviewed-by:
from me for the entire series.

Now all we have left to do is to ask Stafford not to rebase to the latest
kernel before sending his pull requests...

Thanks,
Guenter
