I am waiting your next version with Acked-by instead of Rewieved-by
tags and Greg's comment addressed.

Finally, when we ask you to resend a patch, it means sending a new
version of the patch. So in the subject, you should not use the
[RESEND] keyword (which means you are sending something again exactly
as it was before, you just got ignored, for example) but instead you
should increment the version number (v3) and also write a nice
changelog after the three dashes '---' (will be ignored by Git when
applying).

I would like to queue this for the next release so if you can do it
ASAP, that would be great.

Thank you,
Miquèl
