Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 0/1] asus-wmi: Add support for custom fan curves

Hi Hans,

Yes sorry about that. It is now stabilised and ready for review. I 
don't expect any more changes unless some of the folks testing it find 
issues - and then I'll hold off on new versions until first review is 
completed.

Cheers,
Luke.
