Hi Rusty,

I'm OK for this series of patches, and it seems that the CC list on your mail
(on patch mails) is broken.

  CC: Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au>, Weilong Chen
	<chenweilong@...wei.com>, Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@...achi.com>,

	<2016@...abs.org>, <"16:55:26"@ozlabs.org>, <+1030@...abs.org>,
<---<
	<stable@...nel.org>

Maybe just an off-topic.

Thanks!
