I am really sorry for the noise. I forgot to mark this explicitly for
linux-next the first time and this patch depends on a patch that went
into linux-next. I sent a few patches for several architectures and lost
track. I meant to add explanation before I hit send. The reason for
resend is to tag it for linux-next.
