Confused.  You had a bunch of issues with this patch
(http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180411005938.GN30522@ZenIV.linux.org.uk)
and Tetsuo sent out a v2 but now we've merged the v1.  Deliberate?

Also, it would be nice if you could get the Link: thing working in your
commits please - this one took a bit of hunting down.
