Similar change already in place from Julia Lawall back in May but
looks like that just missed the last set for the merge window
after I managed to loose it and only picked up again when Peter
pointed it out in August.

However, something odd is going on as these are not currently in
next.

Ah, looks line staging-next was updated 2 days ago and last linux-next
is just before that. So I'm afraid you hit some very unfortunate
timing or this would have been there when you were looking.

Thanks,

Jonathan
