This depends on [PATCH] V7: Adjust sanity checks for some volumes
<1279761108-302-1-git-send-email-lkundrak@...sk>.

It might be that I've messed up something in the communication so that
the dependency was not immediately clear. To be honest, I'm not very
familiar with the way reviews and adjustements to patches are tracked.
What have I done wrong, here? How am I supposed to follow up with a
change to a single patch of a multi-patch (be it just two in this case)
set?
