Michael, I'm sure you remember this well - it was only 13 years ago you wrote
this...

https://lore.kernel.org/all/1296744691-24320-1-git-send-email-michael.hennerich@xxxxxxxxxx/

Anyhow, I'd like an Ack or a statement of you have no idea any more and i should
go with what Guillaume has worked out...

Sounds good.
