Yeah, right, so it is embarrasingly so :-) I wonder how I missed ths
during the review. Thanks for spotting this one out. Are you saying
that I should merge the patches into a single one? Perhaps you could
send me the merged patch if so?

If you agree, please send only that patch. I'll send v4 of my patch
