Thanks, patch looks good to me:

Reviewed-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx>

Next time please mark a new (v2) version as such please by changing
the [PATCH] in the subject to [PATCH v2].

You can do this, by for example doing:

git format-patch -v2 HEAD~
git send-email v2-0001-.....patch

Regards,

Hans
