Applied.

But I had to apply this one also by hand, as it conflicted with
Patrick's GVRP changes already in the tree.

When you are maintaining a patch set like this, you have to update
your tree and regenerate your patches in order to make sure no new
conflicts exist before submitting your patches.

That part isn't my job :)

Thanks.
