Applied.

Please use consistent subject line formatting.  In your previous
patch you provided:

	[PATCH] ISDN:foo bar baz

which I corrected to:

	[PATCH] ISDN: foo bar baz

And for this patch you provided:

	[PATCH ISDN] foo bar baz

which I corrected to:

	[PATCH] ISDN: foo bar baz

Anything in those initial brackets will be removed by the
automated GIT tools, it's a place for text strings you don't
want to end up in the final commit message.

But you want that "ISDN: " prefix there in the end, so please
do not put it in brackets, and please do put a space after
that ":"

Thanks.
