Thanks for the patch! Also can you re-send and address Greg and
linux-kernel ? There's significant changes to the firmware API on its

Greg at this point as he also merged some new changes I made to these
scripts.

Odd I am pretty sure I tested this and it worked for me. Wonder what
it could have been... What shell are you using? I used bash.
