Hi Wei,

I am unable to find anything wrong with this patch (except of course
that your top-level description in the "[PATCH 0/4" thread will need
to be added somewhere).

Here's a slight typo/grammar improvement for the patch
description above, if you like:

"The current implementation does some unnecessary conversions
between mem_section and section_nr."

thanks,
john h
