applied to wq#for-linus.  Thanks.

Also, please considering putting related patches into a thread.  For
short series, just chaining them is good enough (ie. patch n+1 is
reply to patch n).  For longer series, writing up a head message with
overall description, diffstat and other general info about the patch
series and making all patches reaplies to the head message is a good
idea.

Thanks.
