Hi Helmut,
I expected it to make into Andrew's tree, since his recommendations were for the next time I submit a patch that matched the circumstances of this one, also, he mentioned he had to fix the issues by hand.
Andrew, do you want me to resubmit it? If so, I'm more than ok with that too though.
Thanks,
Rajiv
