If so, it is way too late to update with a replacement patch, like this. Instead, please send in a follow-up patch on top of what has already been merged. The description above seems to be identical to what was in the previous round, but the patch seems to use a lot more code, so such a follow-up patch would have plenty to explain how the new strategy improves over the previous one. Thanks.
