could ne author of the patch please handle that bureaucracy.
i mean, i wanted to let you know what my findings are, beside this i'm 
still a hard working developer. i integrated it into my own kernels and 
informed the openwrt/lede people already
i dont have time for hours of discussions. i explained earlier my 
thoughts about the cause of the fault in the patch. this should be enough
a more proper report would require deeper analyse and debugging of the 
problem which isnt really neccessary for 10 code lines from my point of view
