I apologize for responding to this question inappropriately. I only replied to Guenter and removed
the others.
The reason for the resend is simply to remove the 'Change-Id' in the commit log, which triggers an
error when running scripts/checkpatch.pl. 
It's a minor issue, and I forgot to mention this change in the cover letter.
I sincerely apologize for any confusion.
