Ok, I thought this was required to apply the patch correctly on previous
stable releases. (Someone asked me to do it on one of my previous patch)
If your mail means I should resend the patch just to add the Cc: line,
please tell me again. Should I resent patches 2 and 3 then, too?
No, patch 3 will break the driver on previous version because remove_new
does not exist.
I don't think it's mandatory for patch 2, it's an optimisation it does
not fix something broken. The driver works as intended with the
condition so no need to remove it.
