So I pulled this, mainly because it removed more lines than it added
due to the revert.

But generally I absolutely *hate* pulling stuff that I can see was
committed just hours ago. Why was that branch so recent? It very
obviously cannot have been in any linux-next or 0day or gotten any
other exposure. Is there a reason for that behavior? And if there is,
just include it in the "please pull", because if it wasn't for the
"removes more lines than adds" I probably would just have decided to
ignore this.
