The patch looks good, but I wasn't confident applying it directly
without some validation, so I've written a test case for this function.
I'll resend the series to the list and cc you. Unfortunately I've found
one case that is failing on the test cases, but I'm too tired to debug
it now. Maybe you'd like to take a look. The test case may very well be
wrong.
