I already forgot about this. And in fact I only gave you a broken
example. So just make yourself the author and add Suggested-by: tglx.

Vs. merging. I'd like to pick that up myself as I might have other

I'll do it as a single commit on top of rc1 and tag it so the scsi
people can just pull it in.
