Thanks, b4 didn't pick this one, probably because you provided the Ack
for a previous version of this series, but the patch in it is the same
as in v2, so I'm keeping it, ok?

Also since you applied the patches and tested it, can I promote the tag
to Tested-by you?

Humm, there is a slight difference, checking that in the e-mails
thread...

+  quiet = quiet_
+  Q = @

The above doesn´t  have spaces surrounding the = sign, lemme see...
