With them just submitted, is there anything else that I need to do to
have the original memset() change applied? I didn't want to submit
the memcpy equivalent (and a small follow-up one) without it having
a realistic chance of going in (which I assume it won't have when the
memset() one isn't acceptable for whatever reason).
