I can do that, or you > can add the patch to this series, just let me know which. I was thinking about this, and initially, I chose to make the smaller change. I think it might make more sense to combine the patch, given that the memset behaviour is "incorrect" if we do it based on sizeof(*req), or sizeof(*resp). I'll go ahead and respin this patch with the change to call memset based on sizes. > > But in any case, this patch is: > > Reviewed-by: Tycho Andersen <tycho@xxxxxxxx> > > Cheers, > > Tycho
