 Change-Id

Locally I will remove the patch and use the '--ignore' option.  

Is there anything I need to do for upstream?  (Sorry, I am new to submitting patches upstream)

Andrew picked this up, but it might be better to remove your patch and just use the --ignore option as --ignore is generic and your patch just duplicates the capability.
