David,

I guess that's really a better question for Sage. He sent my branch
(which includes your changes) plus a whole slew of things over to
Linus. I'm going guess that a small follow on patch is simplest but
I'll let him comment.

Here's the original pull request:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=137849853203101&w=2

Also, so far after making this change everything is peachy and theres
no other regressions.

P.S: This is a resend because I did no hit reply to ALL, sorry for the
spam David.
