Yes, I made the decision to send this patch as a "fix" rather than a change, and
that was rc8. In retrospect, maybe not the best decision. But the patch was
fixing issues for Simon, so...
Anyway, will follow this. I requested more information on Bugzilla. The issue
here is that it may be due to the device having a bad LPM support (there are
many) rather than the controller itself. Need to sort this out.
