Looks good to me now, thanks for the changes!

Some comments for future contributions (should not hold back that
patch, I think):
- Single patch set series don't bother to have a "1/1" after the
  "PATCH".
- You are expected to increase the version number when you send a new
  version, to show that *this* is better than the previous post and
  this version should be merged. Otherwise the maintainer might pick
  the wrong version. "git format-patch -v2" and "git send-email" will
  automatically take care of this.

Please keep in mind that text after the dashes doesn't make it in it
repo, so this information would be lost there. Also, in general links in
commit messages are somewhat frowned upon, since they tend to 404
sooner or later. So ideally you can put a condensed version of your
findings into the commit message? Don't worry if it grows long, it is
not uncommon to have a 2 page commit message for a one-liner patch.

Cheers,
Andre
