That patch adds a blacklist, for yet another model then the 2 bugreports:

>> BugLink: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1497861
>> BugLink: https://bugzilla.suse.com/attachment.cgi?id=743182

which I've received. My patch adds a whitelist instead as it seems the GUID
used is some very generic GUID, so the blacklist patch should simply be
dropped, after which my patch should apply cleanly :)

Regards,

Hans
