* Why isn't pktcdvd maintainer cc'd?

* How is it tested or why do you think this change is correct?

* Didn't Boaz point out that mixing function relocations and
  functional changes makes the patch difficult to review and verify
  already?  Why doesn't the patch description mention function
  relocations?  And why are they mixed with functional changes?
