(top-posting repaired.  Please don't do that).

This wasn't a very good way to send a patch.  I edited the diff,
reconstructed the patch and then assembled a decent-looking changelog. 
I also changed your acked-by to the required signed-off-by, because you
were on the patch's delivery path.

Pretty please: next time, prepare a proper mergeable patch with the
correct attributions and signoffs?  Thanks.
