Hi Heikki,

I can confirm that this patch fixes the issue I've reported on the Lenovo
ThinkPad 8 tablet. You were fast to find the root cause, impressive, really
appreciated.

Feel free to add:
Tested-by: Jérôme de Bretagne <jerome.debretagne@xxxxxxxxx> 

Let's hope it can still make it during the remaining 4.9 rc timing.

Cheers,
Jérôme
