Yes, that'd be my preference as well. Perhaps you can resend and add a
few more people on Cc. In particular I'd like at least Russell's (ARM)
and Ralf's (MIPS) Acked-by. Dmitry was already Cc'ed for input/misc.

The patch is rather minimal, but I'd still like to give them an
opportunity to object or at least see the patch.

Thanks,
Thierry
